This beautiful wetland plant flowers in August in our area. The bright red blossoms stand out against the green plants surrounding it, and hummingbirds LOVE them. It is considered a perennial, but individual plants live only from 7 to 10 years. The plants grow to around 3 feet tall. People do grow them in gardens with a wetland theme, but you should know that either digging or collecting seeds can will affect the colony. It is much better to buy them from a reliable nursery source.
This picture was taken August 19, 2011, in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania.

I always wanted to try photography, and my retirement offered an opportunity to do just that. The natural world is my first love. Here you will find pictures of things both large (landscapes, for instance) and small (macro) that catch my eye. I hope the images serve as a window into the natural world many of you don't have the chance to see. In a sense, I'm trying to create a guided nature trail, sharing what information I have about the subject. I'm always grateful for new and better information and welcome all input. Learning is food for the mind and soul. Nothing is ever harmed in the picture-taking process, but some things that wander into our home (like spiders) are carefully removed from the house after they serve as "models"....

Gorgeous capture of this vibrant beauty Carol ! jd
Carol Senske replied:
They are lovely! The red is such a "true" red and it grows in wetland locations where colors are more often muted. Thanks for the kind words:>)

Understand where it got its name, as it is very red and beautiful, but I especially like the angle that you captured this from, and the neat grass background! Very unique and beautiful photo, Carol!

Thank you for the feature AND the nice comment:>)

For some reason I can't seem to post to your image, Carol. But one more try - it's a beautiful contrast of both color and shape and a lovely work.
Carol Senske replied:
Hi, Lianna:>), I'm glad you did get the post to work - you're very kind! Thank you. Some flowers are so pure and rich in color, this being one.
