Description
(Firecracker Plant) Add Honeybells Cuphea to your pollinator garden! Cuphea are well-loved by hummingbirds for their tubular-shaped flowers. Pollinator bees and butterflies also love this plant and are sure to visit. Honeybells feature long, bright pinkish red flowers with white tips. These flowers line long green stems with complimentary green foliage. Growing in a spreading, trailing habit, this cuphea can reach a height of 10-12 inches and can spread up to 14-20 inches wide. Cuphea are low-maintenance plants and are tolerant of heat and rain. It is also drought tolerant once established. They grow best in full sun to part sun locations. We recommend feeding your annuals once a week with a water-soluble fertilizer. Honeybells Cuphea has excellent flower power and will put on a show all throughout the spring, summer, and fall. It can be planted in a container for your patio, or it can be planted in the landscape as a mass planting or border plant.
