Mimulus ringens, also known as Monkey Flower because of the shape of the flower, is a perennial wildflower native to Michigan and the Upper Peninsula. It reaches 2 to 3 feet tall, and flowers from June to August with a delicately shaped purple blossom with yellow highlights. It has a long bloom time, but even when not blooming, the foliage is attractive. It will tolerate full sun with medium to wet loam or clay, including garden soil with steady medium moisture, but prefers moist to wet loam/silt and part sun.
