Bleeding Heart Vine, Glory Bower 'Delectum'
Clerodendrum thomsoniae

I got my fingers all orange after manipulating these seeds. This plant was blooming and giving fruits at mid winter, Ribeirão Preto, north of São Paulo

My flowers never get this dark. They are a lighter pink. I wish mine made 1/4 the blooms as yours. What is the secret?

Hi. This vine was grown on black, moist soil, with very few hours of direct sun per day... I don´t know if this is the ideal conditions for this vine. The secret? I should ask my grandma :^P

I tried this vine myself some years ago and failed

Thanks, I would appreciate it if you would ask her what she does to it.
