About This Product
Botanical Name: Mimulus aurantiacus x 'Eleanor'
Common Name: Eleanor Monkeyflower
An evergreen, mounding California native shrub-like perennial with a dense, rounded habit. Slightly sticky green foliage is covered from spring into summer with soft yellow flowers edged in white, each marked with orange in the throat. A strong choice for native, habitat, and pollinator-focused plantings, where it attracts hummingbirds, bees, and butterflies. Best performance comes with good drainage, light shade in hot inland sites, and occasional deep watering once established.
