Overview
About Firecracker Fern
Firecracker Fern produces cascading sprays of tubular red flowers on arching, rush-like stems — a hummingbird favorite.
Despite its name, this is not actually a fern. It produces masses of tubular coral-red flowers on gracefully arching stems that create a fountain-like effect. Excellent for containers and raised beds.
