Calliandra eriophylla var. eriophylla

Fairy duster is a stunning desert shrub native to the American Southwest, prized for its feathery pink powder-puff blooms that attract hummingbirds and pollinators. It is extremely well-adapted to dry, rocky soils and requires very little water once established, making it ideal for xeriscape and drought-tolerant gardens. Plant in a sunny to partially shaded spot with excellent drainage and minimal fertilization for best results.
