If you’re looking to bring hummingbirds to your garden, we’ve got just the flora for you: the Firecracker Plant!

This evergreen perennial adds whimsical texture to your garden, and its bright red tubular flowers are what attract the hummingbirds. Their long beaks and slender tongues reach deep into the flower to get the nectar they need to fuel their vigorous wing flapping!

Anybody can sell you plants, we make sure you succeed.
