Description
Brighten up the shade garden with Cardinal Flower 'White', a graceful perennial prized for its tall, clean spikes of snow-white flowers that rise above medium green foliage from early to mid-summer. This elegant selection maintains a tidy form throughout the season, making it a perfect choice for borders, naturalized woodland settings, and containers. Hummingbirds and butterflies are drawn to its tubular blooms, adding both motion and life to your garden.
Reaching up to 3 feet tall in bloom, White Cardinal Flower thrives in part shade and rich, moist to wet soils—ideal for shady beds, bog gardens, and rain gardens. Its upright, spreading habit and fast growth make it a beautiful addition to mass plantings or soft natural edges. Low maintenance and long-blooming, it benefits from spring cleanup and will return reliably each year in suitable conditions, bringing bright contrast and pollinator value to New England gardens.
Each plant comes in a #1 (1 gallon) growers container. The image shown represents an example of what you may receive. Please note that the height, shape, and fullness of each plant may vary due to natural growth patterns. Rest assured, we will select the healthiest and most vibrant plant for you.
