Lobelia cardinalis, Linn. Cardinal Flower. Indian Pink. Fig. 2190. Straight-growing, glabrous or very nearly so, 2-4 ft. tall, usually unbranehed: lvs. narrow, varying from oblong-ovate to lanceolate, tapering both ways, the petiole very short or none, margin irregularly serrate: fls. bright intense cardinal (rarely varying to white), the tube 1 in. long, the 3 lower lobes very narrow, the fls. borne in a long racemose spike in which the bracts are mostly very narrow and the upper ones little exceeding the pedicels; calyx hemispherical, the tube much shorter than the long-linear lobes: seeds distinctly tuberculate. Wet places, as in swales. New Bruns. to Sask., and Fla. B.M. 320. G. 2:447. Gn.M. 1:187.—One of the most showy of all native fls., and worthy of cult, in any moist border. It has been long in cult., but has apparently given no important horticultural forms.
