The listing, Lion's Ear/Tail Wild Dagga 25 seeds has ended.
Fresh seeds for 2013
Can grow up to 8ft but I have grown some in very small containers and they flower and do quite well at around 1ft tall.
Annual lion's ear/tail was originally native to tropical and subtropical Africa, as are the 30 other species in the genus.
Culture
Light: Full sun to intermittent shade.
Moisture: Annual lion's ear grows rapidly and vigorously with regular watering, but still hangs on during drought.
Hardiness: USDA Zones 8 - 11. Annual lion's ear reseeds itself and is capable of maintaining a self sustaining population in USDA zones 8-11. In cooler areas where the growing season might not be long enough for seeds to mature, I replant seeds in zone 5a
Propagation: Annual lion's ear is easy to grow from seed, and under favorable conditions will self sow. But that would be in Southern states where it's warmer. This is really a hummingbird magnet! They love this and what I've read seems to be true, that hummers spend more time at these flowers than most other flowers.
