Mexican Heather

Mexican Heather, scientifically known as Cuphea hyssopifolia, is a charming and versatile perennial plant admired for its small, delicate foliage and abundant clusters of tubular flowers. This plant thrives in full sun to partial shade and well-draining soil. It typically grows to a height of around 1-2 feet, creating a dense, compact mound. Mexican Heather is loved for its continuous blooming, offering vibrant shades of purple, pink, or white flowers that attract butterflies and hummingbirds. It's commonly used as a ground cover, in borders, or as a container plant, adding a pop of color and a touch of elegance to gardens and landscapes.
