Closed, snapdragon-like white flowers appear in late summer and fall on this moisture-loving native. The host plant for the Baltimore Checkerspot butterfly, one of Maryland's most beautiful natives. An important and underused plant for wet shade and rain gardens. Bumblebees are its primary pollinators, forcing their way into the closed blooms.
