A tender evergreen shrub with dark green foliage and orange-red tubular flowers in summer. Plant in fertile, moist but well-drained soil in full sun. In warmer areas it may be evergreen but in frosty areas, protect with a dry mulch in winter. Frost tender but if cut down by frost will probably behave as a hardy perennial and come again from the root. H. between 4' to 6'. 2l pot
