Common name:Santa Ana Cardinal Coral Bells
Botanical name:Heuchera 'Santa Ana Cardinal'
This Heuchera is believed to be a hybrid between the native Heuchera maxima and the non-native Heuchera sanguinea. The name is a little misleading as the flower is more pinkish red than it is red or cardinal. Best used in dry shady conditions in well drained soil. Once established requires little care. Susceptible to mealy bugs and root rot if it receives too much water. Most effective when used in mass plantings. Much smaller leaf than maxima hybrids and grows to 18-24" x 18-24".
Common name:Lemon Bottlebrush
Botanical name:Callistemon citrinus
A large evergreen shrub, the Lemon Bottlebrush bears masses of bright red flowers in the spring and summer that are shaped, as the name implies, like a 'bottle brush.' New foliage grows in a bright, bronzy red.
