February 6, 2019Q.Identifying a plant
We are in zone 8b, and there is a thick stemmed shrub/perennial? here that the local folks call "One Drop of Jesus' Blood." It grows about 7 feet tall, looks "viney" in the summer and fall and is covered in small bright red flowers about the size of a thumbnail. I cut it back in the winter and the ground is covered in seedling babies. Any help is much appreciated!

Certified ExpertA.Unfortunately, we do not recommend specific places to purchase. I would check your local nurseries, or online.
As a side note- Please do not put your personal information here, as the general public can see it. I have removed it for you, this time.

Certified ExpertA.It is often called Turk's cap and seeds should be easy to find online. I would avoid buying from individuals selling on auction sites, etc., but look for reputable seed companies. We don't make vendor or product recommendations so I don't have a source for you. Here is plant information:
