One of the toughest, most beautiful performers for hot, dry, sunny areas. Colors available are cardinal red, light red, pink, white, yellow, coral and raspberry. Blooms from March till frost with most prolific blooming in spring and fall. Hummingbirds love this plant. To keep it low-growing and dense, cut it in half twice a year (mid February and mid June). It is one of the most frequently planted natives and it is easy to understand why.
