Here is a photo of my Cardinal bush. Of all the bushes I have in 15 gallon containers, I was worried the most about how this one would handle the heat because I've allowed him to get way, way to big for his container. But he is just so stunning! And right outside the back door! I haven't been able to bring myself to cut all of this red off!
Even though he is next to a fence, the sun in the late summer, when it gets really hot here, hits him full on until sundown. Some flowers did get fried in the heat, but he got over it pretty quick and replaced them all. This was taken this morning.
