CYPRESS (Hummingbird) VINE-Easy to grow from seed. Loads of 1" red tubular flowers. Every flower is little different than the one next it. The flowers open and close with the sun. There not picky at all about the soil or what they have to climb. They also work as a groundcover on hillsides. They are a Annual that will reseed themselves. Pretty much a carefree plant. They will go strong until the first frost. They don't like a lot of fertilizer, just steady light water about 2 times a week if no rain. Also does well in a med/large container. Thank you!
