Cape Figwort

From LoveToKnow Garden

Cape Figwort (Phygelius) - P. capensis, a Cape plant of some beauty, 3 or 4 feet high, and bearing racemes of brilliant scarlet flowers, which open in May and June and continue far into autumn. It is hardy near London, though it does not flourish so well in the open as on a wall, where it will stand any amount of sun-heat and even long periods of drought. Readily increased by cuttings or portions of the root-stock, the bases of the stems being furnished with rootlets.
