Echium ‘Red Feathers’ (Echium amoenum)
This hardy perennial Echium has tall red flower spikes that start blooming in spring. It will rebloom through summer and into fall by simply removing the spent flowers. Bees and butterflies frequent the blossoms for nectar and pollen. ‘Red Feather’s’ was an introduction from a partnership of the Colorado State University and the Denver Botanic Gardens. Once mature, it is extremely drought tolerant, and grows well in warm, dry areas. In cooler, wetter climates like CT, we’ve found the flowers will sometimes turn more pink than red.
