Cuphea - David Verity Cigar Plant
HOW IT GROWS IN MY GARDEN

I have only been growing this plant for a couple of years but have
been very pleased with this cuphea.   'David Verity' Cuphea looks  
great with other sun loving annuals such as Rudbeckia 'Prairie Sun'
and 'Blue Horizon' Ageratum.  Some of my customers said it has
attracted hummingbirds to their yard . My cuphea is planted in a
container down at my barn, and I haven't noticed any
hummingbirds. This plant grows great in a container or in the
garden.  It is very easy to grow and really takes off when the weather
gets warm.
