Scientific name: Physostegia virginiana

Native to: Eastern and central North America, including Maryland

Native Pink-Purple Perennial for Moist Gardens

Obedient Plant produces upright spikes of pink-purple flowers from summer into fall. Bumblebees, hummingbirds, butterflies, and other pollinators may visit the blooms, and the flower stems can also be used for cutting.

Plants spread by rhizomes and can form expanding colonies in moist sites, so allow room where this growth habit is desirable.
