Fleischmannia incarnata (Pink Thoroughwort) is a tall perennial herb that thrives in well-drained soils and adapts well to full sun to part shade conditions. Preferring medium water use, it can grow up to 6 feet tall, though it is often shorter. From October to December, it produces clusters of white, pink, or purple flowers that attract butterflies and serve as a late-season nectar source. Fleischmannia incarnata adds visual interest to prairies, meadows, and wildflower gardens with its conspicuous blooms and attractive foliage.
