Nursery contributed plant descriptions

From a 1993 collection in the rugged mountains of Coahuila, Mexico amid many other botanical treasures, comes this strap-leaved, blue-green perennial, to only about 18”, with some of the prettiest flowers to be found in the genus. The stems are red, holding orange red flowers with bases dipped in green. Hummingbird magnets! We are still looking for a likely name. Because of its high elevation habitat at over 8500 ft, it is expected to be frost hardy well into USDA zone 7 and evergreen to 15 ℉. Full sun to medium shade; has succeeded in full shade in very hot climates with occasional summer water for best look. A very nice plant.
