3 Tips for Growing Vermillionaire Cuphea

The Vermillionaire Cuphea produces clusters and clusters of tubular shaped orange and red flowers that look like mini firecrackers, which is why one of its common names is the firecracker plant. Its brightly colored blooms will attract hummingbirds like no other, and its upright growth habit makes it great for flower beds or containers.

Follow these easy plant care instructions if you’d like to grow a Vermillionaire Cuphea to its maximum potential:
1. Fertilize your plant every other week to keep it full, green, and blooming.
2. Keep the soil moist but not overly saturated. The Vermillionaire is a forgiving plant, so missing a watering or two is not the end of the world.
3. Deadhead only if the plant gets leggy.

Additionally, you do not need to cut your Cuphea back if you’re a southern gardener and you overwinter it.
