Vines and Climbers: look what I found growing in (nearly all day) full sun, 1 by salvia_lover

This Clerodendron something or other. Can never remember which one is C. thomsoniae, which one is bleeding heart, etc. IN any case, all the GCs here sware this has to be in partial shade or it won't flower and will grow only very slowly and pitifully. Then a week or so ago, some nice people here confirmed that when I tried to convince myself to buy one and put it in a suny position (only spot I have for a climber right now).

In any case, I was out driving around town yesterday and saw this. It was just gorgeous. I dont' know if you can tell from the pics, but it was very healthy looking and is growing in an area that was only built about 4 years ago. So it can't be any older than that.
