Although it still requires well drained soil and drier conditions in most environments, it stays evergreen and can bloom through the year withsupplemental summer water when other varieties will die. It reaches 18"-24" tall and 18"-24" wide and blooms profusely with two toned, pumpkin orange flowers. It is truly stunning and effective in the garden, especially in mass.
