    Gorgeous flower but the rabbits love this plant. They chewed it down to nothing. I hope it comes back up this year. I put a cage around it.

    I grow these often because the hummingbirds love it, but do do the other backyard animals. So I have to replant often, this year they grew so well, full of dark red blooms!
