Lobelia cardinalis
A striking native perennial known for its vivid scarlet flower spikes that bring bold color and movement to rain gardens, stream edges, and moist woodland borders. Cardinal flower forms upright clumps of deep green foliage topped with tall wands of tubular blooms that are a magnet for hummingbirds and other pollinators from mid-summer into early fall. Naturally found in wetlands, floodplains, and along waterways across eastern North America, it thrives in consistently moist soils and bright light.
