Turk's Cap can play many roles in your landscape. It blooms in sun or shade from early spring to late summer and support birds, butterflies, and hummingbirds. Put it in a flowerbed or let it grow big as a bush along a wall or fence.

In the winter it loses its leaves and looks dead but comes back in the spring. Plant it next to some evergreen plants for year-round appeal.

The Turk's Cap White-Skipper butterfly is named for this plant because its caterpillars will only eat Turk's Cap leaves.

 Turk's Cap is red in the wild. The "Pam's Pink" variety is a hybrid version with pink flowers that still provide nectar to pollinators.
