Plant Bio 

Firecracker plant is a small plant that can have an explosive impact in your garden, attracting hummingbirds and butterflies. ts narrow, soft leaves give it a fine texture in the landscape, making it a great contrast to broad-leaf plants. Firecracker plant typically blooms year-round with a profusion of red, tubular flowers.

Firecracker ferns need water for healthy growth. Soak the soil around the base of the plant right after planting. Provide water for the first summer, watering whenever the top 3 inches of soil are dry. Watering encourages the young plant to develop a deep, extensive root system. Mulch reduces weed growth around the plant and regulates the soil temperature to prevent it from becoming too cold or hot. Spread 1 to 2 inches of shredded leaves or bark around the firecracker plant, keeping the mulch about 1 inch from the stems. Firecracker ferns grow best in a sunny location with rich, good-draining soil that retains some moisture. This perennial adapts to dry or wet growing conditions including those found in rock gardens and around water features. Place the plant in an area sheltered from strong winds.
