Floriglory Selena Mexican Heather | Cuphea hyssopifolia ‘Floriglory Selena’ | False Heather
Floriglory Selena Mexican Heather is a compact, heat‑loving subshrub (grown as an annual in cooler climates) prized for its profusion of bright magenta‑pink blooms that continuously blanket its finely textured, glossy green foliage. This exceptional selection from the Floriglory series is known for its highly branched, mounding habit, superior flower size, and nonstop flowering from spring until frost. Its nectar‑rich blossoms draw butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds, making it a standout choice for pollinator gardens, containers, edging, and sunny landscape beds. With its tidy form and reliable performance in hot, humid conditions, Floriglory Selena offers striking texture and color with minimal maintenance.
Growing Floriglory Selena Mexican Heather
Light: Full sun to partial shade; thrives in heat and produces the most abundant blooms with strong sunlight.
Soil: Well‑drained soil; highly adaptable to various soil types but performs best in slightly acidic conditions.
Water: Moderate; water regularly until established, then it becomes quite drought‑tolerant, requiring supplemental water only during prolonged dry spells.
Maintenance: No deadheading required—plants are self‑cleaning. A light shearing in midsummer can rejuvenate the foliage and encourage a fresh flush of blooms.
Wildlife: Highly attractive to butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds; generally avoided by deer.
Hardiness: Perennial in USDA zones 8–11; grown as an annual in cooler regions.
