Jump® Red - Anigozanthos

Jump® Red is an evergreen kangaroo paw with rich red, fuzzy tubular flowers held above smooth, sword-like leaves. Its compact clumping form adds upright color to sunny borders and large containers, and the flower stems can be cut for arrangements. ## Growing Conditions Plant in full sun and use freely draining soil. Devil Mountain Wholesale Nursery lists mature height and width at 2–3 feet, USDA zones 9–11, and moderate to regular water. Water consistently while the plant establishes, then adjust irrigation to the weather and soil drainage. ## Seasonal Interest Kangaroo paws generally flower in spring and summer, though local conditions affect timing. The Australian National Botanic Gardens describes the genus as bird-pollinated and notes that kangaroo paw flowers make good cut flowers. ## Maintenance Remove finished flower stems at the base and clear old foliage as needed. Keep the crown and roots from sitting in water, especially in cool weather.
