The nicest Eriostemma I have seen is 'Ruthie', a hybrid that Ed Gilding produced some years ago. 'Ruthie' has fiery orange and yellow flowers, and is a prolific bloomer. I wish I had gotten a better photo of 'Ruthie', one plant had huge clusters of flowers open every few feet along the stems.
Carol had this one growing in eight or nine places in her garden.
I also saw 'Ruthie' for sale in a local nursery on the Big Island- this one seems to be posed to become a valuable tropical ornamental.
(Dominic- try this one in your garden.)
