Plus, Burning Embers does very well in both heat and humidity while remaining completely covered with blooms that withstood the test of time. A sun-loving accent plant for patio planters with a different texture and look, as well as for quick-growing, low, shrub-like plants that look great at the front of the border. Grows to 10” tall.
