Indian Pink Plant 3 For $13.99 Description

Indian Pink Plant

 

Indian Pink Plant, also known as Spigelia marilandica and Pinkroot, is a native herbaceous perennial that grows in Southern states.

The Indian Pink Plant blooms tubular flowers in mid-May. Clusters of elongated flower buds occur at the top of the stem, showing a vibrant scarlet red color. Indian Pink Plant flowers have 5-pointed petals with an intense yellow star at the top of their floral corolla.


Care and Maintenance

Indian Pink Plants are best planted in the fall to establish the plants better before heat or drought begins in the summer. Indian Pink Plants grow best in semi-shaded, woodland-style gardens with good soil moisture. Found in the wild, growing along rich, moist woods in partly-sunny sites, you will have to water your Indian Pink Plant in sunny landscape settings. Indian Pink Plants grow upright from 1½ to 2½ feet tall. Indian Pink Plants bear denser foliage, and the plant will be more compact in sunlight habitats. The Indian Pink Plant will be taller and leggier in a woodland habitat. Within three years of growth, your Indian Pink Plant will produce a dense, fibrous root system with multiple stems. It can be dug up and propagated by division for replanting. Rinse the free soil on your Indian Pink Plant to expose the root system, and ensure that each division has a growing point or stem. It is best to divide Indian Pink Plants in the summer to have time for good root development after transplanting. Transplants will go dormant in the fall, and larger divisions will bloom the following spring.

Considerations


To create good soil for your Indian Pink Plant, amend more extensive landscape beds with organic matter instead of just amending the planting hole. Composted decompose) pine bark improves soil drainage in clay soil while maintaining the natural soil acidity necessary for this native perennial to grow at its best.
Apply 1 to a 1½-inch deep layer of organic matter over the planting bed, and then mix the soil by tilling to 6 or 7 inches deep. The Indian Pink Plant is attractive to hummingbirds, adding lovely eye-catching color and garden appeal to your landscape.

Indian Pink plants are now for sale at TN Nursery at low prices with fast shipping.

    I adore these beautiful flowers. I purchased these to attract more hummingbirds and they definitely did. I highly recommend them if you are a hummingbird watcher.

    I ordered these last year to attract hummingbirds, which absolutely loved them. I purchased more this year. I was richly satisfied with my order.
