Description

Delightful accents of color are found with this informal shrub. It grows quickly to 6' tall. It can be controlled with pruning, and is a reliable bloomer intermittantly throughout the year, benefitting from infrequent, deep waterings and a little pruning. Attracts butterflies.

Water Saving Tip:

As the weather gets hotter avoid the temptation to increase run times.

Instead, schedule more start times with one to two hours in between to allow the water from the previous session to soak in before watering again.
