Redhead

Plant in any well-drained soil in full sun; firebush tolerates heat, drought, and poor soils once established and reblooms continuously from late spring through frost. The tubular orange-red flowers are magnets for hummingbirds and butterflies, while the small black fruits that follow attract songbirds — making it one of the most wildlife-productive native shrubs for Gulf Coast gardens. In zone 8–9 the top freezes back in winter, but the plant regrows vigorously from the base each spring; cut dead stems to the ground once new growth begins. Native firebush (var. patens) is superior to the commonly sold 'Compacta' cultivar for wildlife value and cold hardiness. Спосіб посадки: Висадка розсади Відстань між рослинами: 48–96 дюймів Висота: 60–120 дюймів Дні до схожості: 14–21 Температура ґрунту для схожості: 21–29°C
