Chelone 'Hot Lips' (Turtlehead)
Hot Lips
Share:

A showstopper in the late summer-early fall, adding vertical form and late summer color. Deep green foliage and rosy, lipstick-colored flowers on dark red stems. Provide adequate moisture. Blooms July through September. Excellent for attracting butterflies to the garden. Great cut flower, and considered deer resistant when mature.
