Eccremocarpus scaber

The hummingbird and the glory flower evolved together in Chile so it is no wonder hummers go crazy for it when grown in your garden here. Both delicate and vigorous with small, tubular flowers ranging from orange to deep red. Plant in full sun to part shade in rich, well-draining soil. Rated USDA zone 9, we use it as a summer vine that re-seeds readily, though some have had luck overwintering in a protected spot with mulch.
