The listing, Gold Star Esperanza - Yellow Bells Beautiful Flowers - Seeds - Texas Star Plant has ended.
‘Gold Star’ Esperanza begins its long period of bloom in May most years. The plant loves the heat; full sun is a necessity to produce blooms. The yellow, tubular flowers appear in several cycles if the seeds are allowed to form. Gardeners who remove spent blooms are rewarded with continuous color until cold weather arrives. On most sites the stems freeze back to the roots every winter and then grow to 7 or 8 feet tall. In sheltered locations it can become a small tree. Deer do not often eat esperanza but will rub it severely.
