{"product_id":"ragin-cajun-indian-pink-bare-root-plant","title":"Ragin Cajun Indian Pink - Bare Root Plant","description":"\u003cp\u003eRagin Cajun is a native Indian pink with orange-red tubular flowers, a more rounded habit and heavier flowering than older selections. It blooms from late spring through midsummer and draws hummingbirds reliably.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt does well in woodland settings and also performs in full sun with enough moisture. Grow it in a shaded border, native garden or woodland edge, where it will settle in and return for years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat it looks like\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eUpright, narrow tubular flowers about 1.5 to 2 inches long in orange-red, opening at the tip into a small five-pointed star with a paler interior, borne in one-sided clusters at the tops of many stems. Leaves are opposite, oval to lance-shaped, 2 to 4 inches long, glossy green. The plant is a rounded, bushy clump 20 to 24 inches tall and wide. At peak it looks like a full green mound covered in upright orange-red tubes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGrowing it with lavender\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIndian pink wants richer, evenly moist soil and some shade, unlike lavender's dry, sunny ground, so plant it at a woodland edge, along a shaded path or in a lightly shaded bed where hummingbirds can find it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGrow in part shade to full sun in average to rich soil that stays evenly moist; plants in more sun bloom more heavily but need more water, and afternoon shade helps in hot spots. Hardy in zones 6-9; it is slow to establish but long-lived, and the flowers drop cleanly on their own, so no deadheading is needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spigelia marilandica\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlower color:\u003c\/strong\u003e Orange-red\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Glossy green\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rounded, bushy clump\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMature size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20–24 in tall × 20–24 in wide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSDA hardiness zones:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6–9\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight:\u003c\/strong\u003e full sun, part sun to part shade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom start:\u003c\/strong\u003e Early-June\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePeak bloom:\u003c\/strong\u003e Late-June\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom pattern:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long Blooming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDeer resistance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderately resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePollinator value:\u003c\/strong\u003e Great\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSizes and shipping\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDormant bare-root plant, sold in boxes of 25 per variety (order in multiples of 25).
