If I could grow only one cuphea, this would be it. David verity cigar plant is unmatched when it comes to flower size and number of blooms. This hummingbird magnet makes all other cigar plant’s flowers seem like mere cigarettes in size comparison. An easy to grow crapemyrtle relative, it produces its multitudes of orange flowers from spring to first frost. David Verity is a hybrid between Cuphea ignea and Cuphea micropetala. It is one of the best hummingbird attracting plants in our display gardens each year.
