Stomoisia Cornuta

Coral honeysuckle, scientifically known as Stomoisia cornuta, is a striking flowering plant native to the southeastern United States. This species is celebrated for its vibrant red-orange tubular flowers that bloom in spring and summer. It thrives in woodland edges and moist soils, making it a popular choice for native gardens and ecological restoration projects. Its nectar-rich blossoms attract hummingbirds and butterflies, playing a vital role in local pollination. Despite its beauty, it remains relatively underappreciated compared to more common ornamental plants.
