Ruellia elegans 'Ragin' Cajun'

Little known, fabulous perennial from Argentina... 2’ tall and a little wider, relaxed upright stems with dark green leaves topped with brilliant scarlet tubular blooms with flaring petals from May into fall! Hummers and butterflies take notice! Happiest in full sun & moist rich soil (but takes some dry). Loves heat and humidity of the Cajun states. Crosses over from tropical to cottage to Mediterranean.
