Spigelia marilandica ‘Orange Slices’ (Spigelia)
‘Orange Slices’ is a standout native perennial that brings bright, hummingbird-loving color to the late spring and early summer landscape.

This long-lived woodland species thrives in sun to shade—more blooms appear in full sun, but plants appreciate extra moisture in brighter exposures. In the South, filtered light helps keep foliage looking fresh.
