Description: PRIDE OF MADEIRA FLOWER SEEDS (Echium fastuosum candicans)Blue Tower of Jewels Garden PlantHow Could Something as Exotic and Beautiful as Echium be Described as Something as Dull as a shrub? This One Can. No Alternative.

Big, Bold, and Fast-Growing, this Ultimately Massive Shrub can Overwhelm a Small Urban Backyard at Maturity, but if You’ve got the Space and Appreciate Vegetative Drama, this is a Plant More than Worth Considering. Echium is also Attractive to Bees, Hummingbirds, and Butterflies. The pride of Madeira shrub is a popular landscaping plant in coastal regions and in the United States, in parts of southern California. Even in non-ideal conditions, the pride of Madeira is highly adaptable to a range of weather and like salty air, wind, bright sun, and rocky and low-nutrient soil. It does best in ample sunlight and humidity and doesn't need fertilizer to grow. Due to its rapid and adaptable growth, it's essential to watch for invasiveness, especially in coastal regions. Bees, butterflies, hummingbirds, and a wide range of insects and songbirds are drawn to its nectar-rich flowers. Trimming the flower panicles before they seed helps to cut down on dispersion.Zones 9-10Pride of Madeira Germination:1) Fill treys with a mix of 50% Compost, 50% Sand.2) Use a heated propagator to keep the temperature at 68-70 degrees F. 3) At night, Drop the temperature to 35 degrees F.
