Persicaria amplexicaulis ‘Speciosa’ is characterized by its abundant and appealing dark red flowers, gracing the garden from early summer to autumn. This variety serves as a magnet for bees and butterflies, enriching your garden with vibrant pollinator activity. Notably, ‘Speciosa’ is generally not enticing to deer, and rabbits are inclined to avoid it. Despite its inherent hardiness, providing protection during severe frost is recommended to ensure the continued resilience and blooming success of this perennial. ‘Speciosa’ not only brings visual allure to your garden but also fosters a pollinator-friendly environment while withstanding various environmental challenges.
