Home of the NO SMALL PLANTS!

We are a bona fide nursery where we grow plants. That means we don't just pop our plants out of a tray and sell you a liner. Our plants are grown on to a bigger size, many times even to a mature plant!

Spigelia marilandica 'Apple Slices' PP36254 CPBRAF

Slices Series


Add a "slice" of this native wildflower to your garden! The tubular flowers appear for many weeks in late spring and early summer. The red and orange colors, coupled with the flower shape, are popular with Hummingbirds and can be used to attract the elusive bird (among other pollinators) to your garden. This woodland perennial grows from sun to shade and is long-lived once established. Spigelia will be more floriferous in full sun, but will also need more moisture to stay looking nice. Filtered sun is recommended in southern regions. Slices Spigelia are self-cleaning, meaning old flowers fall to the ground rather than drying to the stem. 'Apples Slices' has dark, wine red flowers.

Spigelia is underutilized in the landscape due to limited availability, but it's poised to make an explosion in popularity. Why? It's a very versatile perennial-it grows naturally in either sun or shade. This perennial can be found growing in the wild in woodlands and along streambanks throughout the Eastern United States. It's wildly popular among wildflower enthusiasts and highly sought after.


Info: Our plants are grown in 5.25 x 5.25 x 5.25 inch pots and develop large root systems. These are not a small liner but a plant you can put right into your garden. That means you will get a bigger plant right away compared to a starter plant. We guarantee you will get a true to type healthy plant that you will love for years. If you have any problems or questions we are happy to help. During early spring plants may still be breaking dormancy so they may appear smaller than they will be when they fully leaf out. In Fall or Winter the plants may be dormant which means the may be losing or have completely lost their leaves.


Shipping: We do not ship to Hawaii or Alaska due to cost and import restrictions.  Plants will be removed from their pots and loose soil removed and the rootball placed in a bag. We are an inspected nursery from the VA Dept of AG.
