2 Orange Crossandra Plant Plugs Crossandra Infundibuliformis 5-7 Inch Tall

These two live Crossandra infundibuliformis plugs, commonly known as the firecracker flower, showcase vivid orange blossoms that bring warm tropical color to any planting space. Each healthy plug stands 5-7 inches tall with glossy, deep green leaves, offering a compact and bushy form that appeals to gardeners seeking reliable, eye-catching floral displays.
