Flame Acanthus aka Hummingbird Bush

Brazoria, TX(Zone 10a)

I want to plant a Flame Acanthus. It has flowers that are orange or red though I never see the description as Orange Flame Acanthus or Red Flame Acanthus. I’m guessing that it must be dependent on some condition. Is anyone familiar with this family to know what determines the red-ness of it? (I want red, not orange).

Thanks!!
