Default New plant discoveries at least to you

Watched about 10 minutes of TV this AM on a garden program. They
depicted this shade loving red flowered plant which I just ordered from
parks . Likes to zone 4. Hope it propagates easily. 1 3 inch pot with
shipping $25 (

Indian Pink
Spigelia marilandica


I'd been wanting this for years and found it this spring at a local nursery.
Snapped up three pots (extra deep 4"). I think they were 6.99 (or
maybe 7.99).

They actually bloomed this year. Rather nice. Hope they survive and
spread out a bit.
