Product Description
The popularity of Mexican Heather exploded in the 1980s, and this plant, is still an excellent choice.
The first species that comes to mind is the bat-faced cuphea, or Cuphea llavea. Summer's heat will not stop these unique flowers that look like bat faces with scarlet red petals and little, purple mouse ears. The stems become slightly woody, arching and weather-tough. These are low maintenance, drought-tolerant, heat-loving plants. They also make great house plants or patio plants.

This review is from: Bat Face Mexican Heather Plant - Indoors/Out - Cuphea - 4" Pot
This is my favorite type of cuphea plant. It is long lasting, in my area blooms until freezing temps, and is a hummingbird magnet. Also, it tolerates drought well and is constantly in bloom. You do not have to baby this plant once it's established. Makes a pretty addition to my container flower collection.

This review is from: Bat Face Mexican Heather Plant - Indoors/Out - Cuphea - 4" Pot
I was so pleased with this plant. It looked just like the picture. It is very unusual looking, looks just like it's name; bat face.
It arrived in good condition and seems to be happy at its new home.
