Another excellent shade performer, Turk's Cap fills the bill (it also does well in sunny spots). From May through frost, bright red flowers accent the heavily textured light green leaves of this plant. Generally grows 3' - 4' tall. Hummingbirds and butterflies love the colorful flowers. Grows in any well-drained soil. It has survived and thrived in our demonstration gardens for over 60 years
