Russelia equisetiformis

Coral Fountain (Firecracker Plant)

This plant has a weeping habit that gives it a casual look. Looks great around water features, in containers, and cascading over raised bed edges. The tubular flowers attract hummingbirds and other pollinators. Prune back in early spring to freshen it up after winter as stems may die back slightly in cold temperatures.
