Any time we come across a cool new Cuphea, we are going to make it available to our customers because these plants are amazing performers in the garden. Firefly is another flower making machine that draws in lots of hummingbirds and butterflies thanks to its rich nectar. It is very similar to Bat Face Cuphea but has extra petal fragments attached to the bat’s chin, sort of like little beards. You also get a little more of a purple hue when you look at all the blooms collectively. This beauty is super easy, super tough and looks equally great in flower beds or containers.
