Excellent for both foliage and flower. This plant should be in your garden of low growing plants. Glistening, brilliant scarlet, tubular, bell shaped flowers are carried in trusses of up to 10. The smooth, dark green leaves are densely covered with woolly brown to dark brown indumentum underneath. A fantastic choice for your landscape. (HY, hy, Neriflora)
