About this plant

The 'Crimson Fire' Fringe Flower is an exceptional evergreen shrub from the First Editions® collection, celebrated for its striking deep burgundy-purple foliage that holds its color throughout the year. In spring, it erupts with a profusion of brilliant crimson-red, strap-like flowers that create a stunning contrast against its dark leaves. This compact and dense grower is an excellent choice for foundation plantings, shrub borders, or as a vibrant accent plant. Its unique weeping habit adds graceful movement to the garden, while its relatively small stature makes it ideal for smaller gardens or container planting. Beyond its ornamental appeal, 'Crimson Fire' is also surprisingly adaptable, tolerating a range of conditions once established. Whether you're looking for a bold splash of color, a unique texture, or a reliable evergreen that provides continuous interest, the 'Crimson Fire' Fringe Flower delivers on all fronts, becoming a captivating focal point in your outdoor space.
