The golden yellow flowers tinged with orange look like small flames, parrots beaks or lobster claws. The texture of the delicate needle-like foliage will soften the look of any planting. The gorgeous blooms show early and the plant tolerates heat, humidity and drought. A must have in baskets and planters in sunny locations.
