Hi,
I love this plant. I was able to get a few seeds on vacation. Did you start your plants by seed or buy the plants/

Hi Mickey,
The plants were on the property when we bought it 15 years ago. They were not doing well in the shade where they were planted so we moved them to full sun and they have been doing great every year since.

reviar,
I just fell in love with coral vine when we were in Cambodia and then I saw some in Bangkok and took a few seeds. There in Bangkok they were growing in a sinking spot were the soil was very very wet. I have seen then in the colder spots of Arizona now and see that they can take a good freeze. I just love the beautiful little flowers It is nice to know that the transplant easy.
I found a place that sells white and red they bloomed for me the first year. I am not seeing pink being sold here in the Phoenix Az area too.
Yours look great.
Mickey
