Description

Bring a vibrant, tropical blaze to your shade garden with our Orange Flame Justicia (Justicia chrysostephana 'Orange Flame'). ✨ Grown with care right here at the Farm and Nursery at Chianina Microtopia, this stunning evergreen shrub features dark, glossy green foliage that perfectly sets off its spectacular, crown-like clusters of bright orange, tubular flowers. It literally looks like a flickering flame! It is an absolute magnet for hummingbirds and butterflies, making it the perfect showstopping focal point for your shaded patios, porches, or planted under canopy trees. 🏡🦋

Quick Care Tips for Success:

☀️ Light: Thrives in partial shade to bright, filtered light. Protect it from harsh, direct afternoon sun, which can easily scorch its leaves and stress the plant. Gentle morning sun or dappled shade under a larger tree is its absolute favorite!

💧 Water: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during the hot Florida summer. It loves a good drink and doesn't like to dry out completely, so plan to water it whenever the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch.

🌴 Humidity: As a true tropical, it absolutely loves high humidity! Our natural Florida environment is perfectly suited for it to thrive.

🐾 Toxicity: 100% pet-friendly! Completely safe for your curious cats and dogs.
