Description
If you’re looking to brighten up the palette of your spring garden, fire pink (Silene virginica) is definitely worth a look. Native to much of eastern North America, this showy woodland wildflower bears brilliant red, five-petaled flowers on 12- to 18-inch-tall stems from mid-spring to early summer. They’re a great source of nectar for early-returning hummingbirds. Partial shade. Perennial; Zones 4 to 8. Individual plants can be short-lived but the patch may continue through self-sowing.
Collected in mid-June 2022. At least 15 seeds. Limited quantity; one packet per customer. Ecotype unknown. Shipping to US addresses only.
Please read the germination information as well before ordering.
