It looks just like Firebush to me! A great zeriscape plant, mine doesn't need much of any care...just to be cut back when winter cold freezes it back, comes back in spring if it does freeze back.

What is xeriscape?! I have them in my beds in the front yard but no flowers :(

I hate this plant, it`s a huge pest here popping up every where, sending up plants from the roots.

xeriscape is using native/adaptive plants that require little water

Tally Ho!

Xeriscape is a landscape that doesn't require much water. As for why the other firebushes are not blooming sometimes same plants may be on a slightly different blooming schedules depending on their location in a yard. Your other firebushes will probably start blooming soon and will then bloom all summer. It's a great plant!

Well, Talley has different growing conditions than I do. it's a great plant in my part of San Antonio!

It keeps on blooming under the hottest and driest conditons imaginable and in the worst soil. I guess in my conditions it has no strength left to send out little plants ... LOL

Oh cool! We'll now I know. So it will die every winter and come back?

Yes, the top dies, but the roots live. It's later to come back in the spring than a lot of plants so don't give up on it.

Happy gardening!
