🌿 Lady Slipper Plant (Pedilanthus macrocarpus) – A Hummingbird-Friendly Beauty!
Add a unique flair to your garden or indoor space with the Lady Slipper Plant, a fascinating succulent from the Baja Peninsula in Mexico. Known for its pencil-like green stems and vibrant red, slipper-shaped flowers, this plant is sure to turn heads. It’s also a summer bloomer, bringing bursts of color and charm during the warmer months.
We now have another variety of the Lady slipper plant for Spring 2025, Azul! The Azul lady slipper plant is characterized by blue/gray/dark-green stems that are stouter than the green variety. It is also a slower grower than the green Pedilanthus. Same red flower and the same cold hardiness as the green lady slipper plant.
