HAMELIA

Fire Bush, full size variety. Grows into a small tree. Small, tubular red-orange flowers. Pruning inhibits the blooms, which appear at the ends of the branches. One of the best butterfly attractors.

Cute yellow bell-like flowers! If you want yellow to get involved in the design, then you've got to add Bahama firebush. Similar in growth to the scarlet-flowered one, you can keep it trimmed below seven feet. Large leaves make it good for screening. Don't hedge it; trim it naturally, and it will flower much more. Pollinator-friendly flowers during the rainy season. Great butterfly attractor.
