I posted MUSSAENDA PHILIPPICA (WHITE)
(DONNA AURORA).
I DID NOT named it ERYTHROPHYLLA,
because this one is the RED

Joyce,
I really don't know, I will give it a try because is different and very decorative.
Pick a space sort of protected from winds, and colds.
My suggestion is to keep it in a large container not in the ground, it will live okay
in it and you can take it in when nasty weather.
Go for it,and good luck.
Armando

Thanks for your response, Armando. (I finally found it!) I sure will look for that BEAUTIFUL white mussaenda and give it a try. I have a little greenhouse now and could put it in a BIG pot and take it in when the weather gets cold ... like it is now.

When I lived in new Braunfels (zone 8) I had one and it was beautiful......though I really had to bring it in for the winter...well worth the trouble!!
