Deciduous/Evergreen | Evergreen |
Special Features | Easy Care, Fast Growing |

Design Ideas | This is a great semi-tropical plant for sheltered locations and on the coast. Makes fine foundation planting under arbors and awnings. Ideal for courtyards and even atriums, but also does well out in the garden, where its drooping flower heads nod and sway in the breeze. Plant near a spa to enjoy its unique prawn-like bracts and hidden flowers up close. |

Foliage Color | Green |
Companion Plants | Princess Flower (Tibouchina); Banana (Musa); Lantana (Lantana); Canna (Canna); Jatropha (Jatropha) |

Feed with a general purpose fertilizer before new growth begins in spring. For a formal appearance, prune annually after flowering. |
