This is for Burgundy Wine Iochroma seeds. This Ecuadorian cloud forest shrub/small tree rocks its hummingbird magnet blooms YEAR ROUND (even in Winter)! Related to the lovely Brugmansia, it sports clusters of 2" long, deep burgundy blooms. Flowers happen on new growth, which means it's totally pruneable. Growing to 10-12' high by 3-5' wide fairly quickly, prune it to whatever size your heart desires. Near the coast it's cool in the sun, but for those of you in warmer places, plant in a shadier place to protect from hot afternoon sun. ALL PARTS POISONOUS! This is a brief guide to Iochroma. There is increasing interest in Iochromas which are late spring-summer flowering shrubs.Only six of the 24 or so Iochroma species are in general cultivation but between them, and their hybrids, they give a wide range of flower colours in shades of blue, purple, red, orange and white. The flowers do not smell but are nonetheless attractive to hummingbirds in the US. The plants are moderately hardy. I have mine growing in a container and it has withstood temperatures in the mid-twenties without damage, and without ceasing to bloom.. My plant has withstood 25 and looked good. Shrubs get to 8 feet tall and wide and are nearly always in bloom. They are a great plant for attracting hummingbirds. Can be grown in containers in colder climates and brought in by a sunny window for the winter. They still bloom indoors. This is for 10 fresh organic seeds with growing instructions.
