Blood flower is a tender evergreen perennial in the dogbane and milkweed family. It is native to South America, but has naturalized worldwide in many tropical and subtropical areas. It has a much longer flowering period than the perennial milkweeds that are winter hardy in zone 7 and colder. It typically grows as a subshrub to 2-3' tall on upright stems clad with pointed, opposite, lanceolate leaves (to 6" long).
