Looking for a tough-as-nails perennial that handles the intense Texas summer heat without missing a beat? Meet Gomphrena Fireworks! This spectacular plant features intense, electric-pink blooms tipped with bright yellow “sparks” that look just like a firework explosion. In this quick video, we look at why Gomphrena Fireworks is an absolute must-have for any Central Texas pollinator garden. It attracts butterflies and bees and blooms all summer long into the winter.

It is a low water plant and perfect in a container or planted in the ground.  Fun fact- the blooms make excellent cut flowers!  They keep their color for a long time so cut them and bring them inside to enjoy.
