An evergreen perennial with fuzzy rich red flowers that look like claws that rise high above the iris-like foliage from spring through fall (nearly year round along coast). Grows 4-6 feet tall and 2-3 feet wide. Plant in a sunny and open position in the garden in well drained soils. Irrigate regularly and fertilize in spring (not heavily and keep Phosphorus on the low side). Fans only flower once and need to be cleaned out after the flowering period. Hardy and evergreen to about 25 degrees F. Attracts hummingbirds.
