Chris ordered several interesting native plants for our garden and jack-in-the-pulpits were some of the ones that we received. They came to us as tiny corms and sprouted faster than I expected. It would be really cool to have them naturalize in our more shady and moist areas of the yard.

This is a pretty interesting write up as is this.

Do you grow any unique native plants?

    I love these! So did my grandmother. We have a few that have popped up around the house. There is one by the air conditioner that grows waist high.. It seems to like the northern exposure..!

    Hey, Misti, thanks for stopping by My Corner of Katy! The jack-in-the-pulpits are so endearing … may they do well for y’all! I have finally acknowledged to myself that there are NO moist shady spots in my garden and I should stop torturing plants that love those conditions. I’ll make one exception: Indian Pinks, Spigelia marilandica.
