Description

Rarely seen in gardens, Colquhounia coccinea 'Nepalese Flame' is a captivating shrub offering a dazzling burst of exotic flowers late in the season when most displays are beginning to fade.

Introduced from the Himalayas in 1980, ‘Nepalese Flame’ is the most vivid coloured clone available. From late summer to autumn, tall spikes of rich vermillion, trumpet-shaped flowers with gold throats create a fiery display against its downy, semi-evergreen foliage. The flowers erupt along terminal racemes, each one up to 2.5cm long and resembling giant salvia blooms. Plants flower over a long period from August onwards and will even keep blooming until November in mild seasons. Its exotic appearance belies its resilience to cooler conditions, with plants hardy in most parts of the UK given shelter from cold winds and freely draining soil.

Colquhounia coccinea 'Nepalese Flame' makes a superb exotic specimen for borders, courtyards, sheltered gardens and coastal areas, adding drama during the closing months of the year. Ultimate height and spread: 1.5m (4.9ft) to 2.5m (8.2ft).

How to Grow

Grow in full sun in poor to moderately fertile, well-drained soil with protection from cold, dry winds. A sheltered spot such as against a south or west wall is ideal. While the top growth may be harmed by hard frost, it typically re-sprouts from the base. Apply a deep, dry mulch in winter. Prune lightly in the spring.
