Mimulus x aurantiacus - Cherry
Hummingbird Favorite, Bright Blooms
A STUNNING low water, CA native shrub with gorgeous raspberry-colored flowers (perhaps the prettiest "Monkey Flower" we grow!) and a vigorous disposition. It's also a magnet for both hummers and butterflies! Thrives in many exposures, from blaring sun to almost total shade, but it's much more floriferous in full sun. Be judicious with your water once established, as it prefers a life of neglect, low water, low fertilizer, and little maintenance. Too much love has been the death of many a Mimulus! In super dry conditions, it may go partially dormant. Prune in early Spring to encourage bushiness. Grows from 2-3' high and wide. DRY SHADE and CLAY TOLERANT!

Guarantee
We guarantee the perishable items we sell to be in good, viable condition when we sell them. Perishable items include, but are not limited to, garlic bulbs, flower bulbs, seed potatoes, onion sets & transplants, potted or bare root trees, vegetable crowns, etc. If your perishable item arrives in substandard condition, take photographs and please contact us within 3 days of the purchase date (or delivery date) and we will provide you with a refund of the purchase price (excluding shipping costs), or a replacement. Accordingly, we urge you to open any boxes marked as ""Perishable"" immediately upon receiving them and inspect the shipment thoroughly (do not crack open heads of garlic, we do not accept claims on cracked garlic). Because some perishable items can deteriorate very quickly, we cannot accept any claims beyond the 3-day time frame as it becomes too difficult to determine if these items were delivered in substandard condition, or if they turned into such substandard condition because of having been improperly cared for or stored once delivered.
