A Joyfully Sunny and Low-Maintenance Shrub

The Sundance Esperanza may be the burst of cheer you’re looking for.

coat this fast-growing shrub, providing plenty of color for your landscape or garden. Along with the flowers, the

fern-like leaves

grow upright in an olive-green color.

, blooming from spring until the first frost

. Come fall, the plant produces seed pods and pale brown to dark gray bark.

Butterflies and hummingbirds enjoy the slightly fragrant flowers, so this plant will fit right into

wildlife gardens

patio gardens, mass plantings, hedges, rock gardens, and Mediterranean-inspired landscapes.

the most-cold hardy and drought resistant

warm, tropical climates

, it can also be grown as an annual in cooler areas.

Considered very easy to grow, it’s one of the

best plants for desert landscapes and requires very minimal maintenance
