    The Manyflower Beardtongue is a common wildflower found throughout Florida upland habitats. Its hairy, upright stalks reach up to 3 feet in height and showy white, tubular flowers are born at the upper leaf axis. Each flower is 5-lobed, 2-lipped - with a long staminode inside that looks like a fuzzy tongue. Blooms are enjoyed from spring through early summer before dying back in winter, attracting native bees and hummingbirds. It is also the host plant for the Baltimore Checkerspot. Manyflower Beardtongue grows best in full sun or very, minimal shade. Soil should be sandy and well-drained. This wildflower has low tolerance for salty wind or direct salt spray. The Manyflower Beardtongue is a popular choice for wildflower gardens or meadows as it spreads on its own by reseeding and producing ā€œpupsā€ from the main rosette. An abundance of these white-tipped stalks in a naturalistic setting can be quite eye-catching.
