RED CARDINAL IS A PERENNIAL WILDFLOWER THAT ATTRACT BEES, BUTTERFLIES AND HUMMINGBIRDS, BUT NOT CARDINALS! THEIR BRIGHT RED BLOOMS SURROUNDED BY FINE TOOTHED DARK GREEN LEAVES, WILL DRAW ATTENTION TO YOUR FLOWER BEDS.
USUALLY FOUND NEAR WOODLAND STREAMS OR SWAMPS, IT PREFERS MOIST CONDITIONS. GROW THIS WILDFLOWER IN PARTIAL TO FULL SUN. CARDINAL FLOWER GROWS IN CLUMPS, AND PLANTS CAN REACH 2 TO 3 FEET TALL. THEY BLOOM IN THE LATE SUMMER AND EARLY FALL.
PLANT CARDINAL FLOWER SEEDS IN THE LATE FALL OR EARLY SPRING. THEY CAN BE SLIGHTLY DIFFICULT TO GERMINATE AND NEED TO BE PLACED IN A FREEZER FOR 60 DAYS BEFORE PLANTING IN THE SPRING. THIS IS NOT NECESSARY FOR LATE FALL PLANTINGS.
IN SOME CLIMATES THESE CARDINAL FLOWERS WILL RE-SEED THEMSELVES AND YOU'LL GET ANOTHER CROP THE NEXT YEAR. THE CLUMPS CAN ALSO BE EASILY DIVIDED.
