Large showy single blooms in a remarkable copper hue. Blooms May to October, forming dense mounds of color and attracting bees and hummingbirds to its long-spurred blossoms. Bright blooms are deliciously edible, with a spicy flavor, like watercress – use them whole to garnish salads, or chop and add to cheese spreads or rice dishes. Grows 11-12” tall. Full sun or part shade in hotter climates. Photo courtesy of Compass Horticulture.
