A non-native, but non-invasive sage that is an exceptional performer in the southern half of Texas. Depending on the intensity of winter, it may remain evergreen or die back to the soil. In either case it will reliably return if established. Bright orange-to-red flowers appear throughout summer, and hummingbirds flock to these oversized blooms. The plant has a pendulous growth habit, which can result in it sort of becoming a groundcover. For pretty plants, cut back very hard in winter, and by half in August. This will keep it mannerly. Leaves are pleasantly fragrant when bruised or cut.
