Monkey Flower
Mimulus Orange Glow
This is an adorable, orange-flowered perennial which is short-lived but very spectacular. It produces an abundance of wonderful, funnel-shaped, bright orange flowers with attractive yellow centres that are speckled to various degrees with deep-orange red. Each bloom consists of five frilly petals which create a fantastic effect and compliment the slightly serrated, light green foliage beautifully. It prefers a cool site with a well-drained soil and becomes drought tolerant once established

Garden Care:
Protect the crown of the plant with a generous mulch of dry leaves or chipped bark in October and cut right back to the basal shoots in March. Please Note: Many perennials go ‘dormant’ which, in some cases, means that there is little or no top growth apparent between November and March. If you order perennials whilst they are dormant, they may not be visible above the soil level when purchased but will burst into life in spring. In the dormant period, we may not have stocks of all varieties in all pot sizes and therefore reserve the right to supply 9cm pots instead of 1 or 2 litre plants and adjust the price down accordingly.
