rj the mussaenda i have has always been in the ground under a huge coral tree so it gets quite a bit of shade in the summer but winter alot of sun. they really don't need any thing special as far as care. i so usually prune them back after they flower because they get kind of scraggly looking.the red cloak fowers all year here. it just started flowering again because it was at least 12 ft.tall. i took a bunch of cuttings but only seem to get about 50/50 luck with cuttings.

i love erythrinia. i have a huge old coral tree in the back. i have heard they take easy from a cutting (like a gumbo limbo). have you had luck with cuttings.

what beautiful combination ashley kelly
