Firecracker Plant, Mexican Cigar

(Cuphea ignea)
This plant is currently unavailable.

 It is a small evergreen semi-shrub, native to Mexico, no more than 60 cm tall, which is blooming constantly and abundantly in summer, enchanting us with its vivid orange-red, thin, cigar-like, tubular flowers. The beauty of the blossoms is more highlighted by the sparkling shiny, dark green foliage! It feels best in blazing sunshine from spring to autumn and makes us happy by a constant flood of flowers in places like that! In its original habitat, the flowers attract hummingbirds! (The Latin word ignea means fire!) Keep it in a light, frost-free place in winter.
