Lobelia speciosa 'Starship Scarlet', commonly known as Starship Scarlet Cardinal Flower, is a striking perennial with tall, upright spikes of vivid scarlet-red flowers that bloom from mid-summer to early fall. Thriving in full sun to partial shade and moist, well-drained soil, this variety is perfect for borders, rain gardens, and along ponds or streams. The brilliant red blooms of Starship Scarlet attract hummingbirds and butterflies, adding a dynamic and vibrant element to any garden setting. Its compact, bushy habit and long flowering period make it an excellent choice for adding bold color to both formal and naturalistic landscapes.
