Phygelius General Information

"Phygelius is a showy perennial with an upright, bushy, shrub-like structure. Best in moist, well-drained soils. Long, funnel-shaped blossoms attract hummingbirds." Idaho has restricted all potted plant material from being shipped into Idaho at this time.

Phygelius Plant Care

"Remove spent flowers to prolong bloom. Cut back to basal foliage in late winter. To maintain size and spread, pinch back foliage during the growing season and prune low growing, rooting branches. Foliage will die back to ground level in cooler zones and will come up again from root stock in spring. Will stay semi-evergreen in warmer zones."

Plantable Pots

Our plants are grown in 3.5x3.5x4” plantable pots. Made from 100% biodegradable coconut husk fibers (coir), these pots have tremendous advantages over plastic pots. With better air exchange, this "breathable" pot fosters robust root growth and reduces transplant shock since you can plant the pots directly in the ground. The pot naturally becomes part of the soil on its own over time—no composting required—and since they're made from a renewable resource that requires very little energy, they're earth-friendly too!
