Pardancanda sent this to me last year as a bareroot plant. I was real surprised to see the blooms this year.

Overwintered indoors, set out in its container in summer and hoping it lives forever. It's gorgeous.

Incredibly vivid red petals, flowers attractive to butterflies who nectar at the base of the petals.
This plant seems to love its location and has produced some nice blooms.
