Silene virginica ‘Sil005’ Forged by Fire™, commonly known as fire pink, is a vibrant native perennial celebrated for its intense red blooms and compact habit. In late spring, brilliant scarlet, star-shaped flowers appear above tidy mounds of green foliage, creating a bold splash of color that attracts hummingbirds and pollinators. Compared to typical species, this improved selection offers a more uniform, floriferous display and better garden performance. Ideal for rock gardens, borders, and naturalized plantings, Forged by Fire™ thrives in well-drained soils and brings striking, long-lasting color to sunny landscapes with minimal care.
