Zone 10

Related to the beauty-berry bush and lantana, this vine is powerful in color. It holds itself by wrapping around any support it can reach, so once started, further training is not needed. It originates from West Africa

Blooms almost year around

Fact not well known is Bleeding Heart  can be an exciting houseplant

Maximum color is in the summer north of South Florida but displays blooms all year in Fort Lauderdale. Plant this Clerodendrum in rich, well drained soil free of nematodes. Fertilize normally
