Redmaids (Calandrinia menziesii)

Redmaids  (Calandrinia menziesii) is a charming, low-growing annual herb that typically reaches about 1 foot in height. Its lance-shaped, slightly succulent leaves are complemented by vibrant, deep pink to red flowers that bring striking color to the landscape.

This hardy and adaptable plant thrives in various habitats and climates, often volunteering in natural areas as a minor weed. It’s well-suited to sunny locations with minimal water needs, making it an excellent choice for water-wise gardens and wildflower meadows.

Redmaids is an easy-to-grow, resilient addition to native gardens, adding seasonal interest and a pop of bright color to arid and low-maintenance landscapes.
