NEW FOR 2024! The species is native to Mexico, found growing wild across northern South America, the Caribbean, and SE United States. Grows from 1-3’ tall; full sun is best in the North, partial shade is preferred in the South, and Armitage suggests that afternoon shade is beneficial in any case. The native forms are scarlet red in flower (Blood sage is a common name), but the Nymph series comes in white, salmon, pink, and this white/red bicolor--the ‘Coral Nymph.’ Flowers are gracefully spaced along slender stems and are highly attractive to hummingbirds. Germination is easy, but requires light, so seed should be pressed into the starting medium. Transplant at 1-2’ apart. Oregon Tilth Certified Organic Seed!
