Red Rocket Russelia - Russelia sarmentosa
A spectacular russelia with small, dark green leaves on 3?-4? long, arching stems topped with clusters of a multitude of small, tubular, bright red flowers. Blooms late spring to fall. A gorgeous accent in any landscape or as a specimen in a beautiful container. Sun or light shade. Moist, well drained soil. Hummingbirds!
