Cardinal Flower, a North American native, is a showstopper with its brilliant red blooms that attract hummingbirds and butterflies. Perfect for damp, shaded spots, this perennial not only beautifies your garden but also supports local wildlife. Its presence enhances biodiversity, making it a valuable asset to any nature-friendly landscape.

Plant Cardinal Flower in spring or early fall in a location with full sun to partial shade. Ensure the soil is consistently moist and rich in organic matter. Space plants 12-18 inches apart. Water regularly, especially during dry spells, to maintain soil moisture. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming. Divide clumps every 2-3 years in early spring to maintain vigor.
