Fun facts:
This plant gets its name because if you push a flower to the side, it stays in place for a while before slowly moving back. But despite the name, it’s not very obedient in gardens—it spreads quickly and can take over if not controlled!
The tube-shaped flowers are perfect for hummingbirds, which love sipping nectar from them. Bees and butterflies also visit, making this plant a great choice for a pollinator-friendly garden!
