Giant Cigar Plant

This mad blooming, shrubby perennial is growing out of my neighbor’s 1’ across parking strip, and I think it’s rather the envy of the neighborhood. Evergreen and ever-blooming, it’s a fiesta of non-stop bloom in mild climates like ours (in colder climates it’s known to put on its best show from August to October). Zillions of yummy 2.5” bicolor “candy-corn” looking flowers adorn the many radiating red stems, making this the most visited-by-hummingbirds plant I’ve ever seen! Nice glossy foliage, it’s drought, clay and salt tolerant. Totally easy! To 4’ x 5’, cut back to 1.5’ tall in Winter to maintain a smaller shape.
