Indian Pink


Spigelia marilandica

Indian Pink

Plant Indian pink and you're sure to have hummingbirds. This easy-to-grow wildflower is a hummingbird magnet thanks to its red and yellow flowers. It's rarely bothered by pests and diseases and adds a bright dose of summer color to shady spots. Indian pink does best in most, well-drained soil that's rich in organic matter and is native to woodland areas in North America.
