This monkeyflower hybrid sports large, tubular flowers in a vibrant dark red with yellow nectar guides, a color combination highly attractive to hummingbirds and pollinators. The glossy green foliage grows 2 ft. or more tall and wide and is the perfect foil for the showy, late spring and summer blossoms. Pinch back older stems to keep it looking fresh and dense. Monkeyflowers can be planted in full sun to light shade, but prefer afternoon shade inland. Needs good drainage and occasional summer water. A larval food source for buckeye and checkerspot butterflies. Deer resistant.
