Has anyone ever grown Russelia equisetiformis (firecracker plant)? I have 3 for the last few months in 1 gallon pots. Doing ok...just not explosive growth. I realize that in my area it is considered an annual. I hope to overwinter. Any tips for growing, overwintering, getting them to thrive?
Always looking for interesting plants for pollinators and food! Bonus points for highly, and pleasantly scented plants.
