Cuphea 'Hummingbird's Lunch'
Cuphea ignea 'CUPP1751'

Non-stop blooms will attract hummingbirds, bees, and butterflies all summer and fall with bright cherry-red two-toned flowers. Well adapted to hot conditions, and drought tolerant once established. The tidy, rounded habit is perfect for containers, or in garden beds.
While considered hardy in zones 8-11, it is generally grown as an annual here in western WA. It can also be grown as a perennial by planting in a pot that is protected over the winter.
