An evergreen shrub with aromatic green-silver leaves. From summer to autumn produces very showy, orange-brown large flowers. Once the flowers fade & drop, the even more showy, dusky red calyces are the star of the show. Likely hardy only in the milder UK districts, otherwise protect from winter wet and plant in the most protected, sunny part of the garden, or grow in a pot.
