Growing Cuphea (Firecracker Plant)
Latin Name Pronunciation: koo'-fee-ah
Grow in full sun in average, well-drained soil that stays evenly moist. Once established, plants can tolerate dryer growing conditions.
Fertilize twice a month in summer with a water-soluble fertilizer (such as 15-30-15) to keep plants flowering all season long.
