Does someone know the REAL name of this vine, cousin to Solandra? I just got one at the Market...beautiful red flowers!!! Does it need any special considerations?

YES, Donna - that's the one! It is beautiful, isn't it? I had never seen one before and just fell in love with the bright colors!!! We planted it outside to take over a couple of trees!!!

Thanks, Carol

I agree, stunning... I hunted for this a couple of years ago, fell in love with those flowers. But then found out it would not like my zone 9. :~(
I eventually gave up the dream now that it is available. Figures, huh? LOL I hope you will post pics when it blooms for you, I will pretend it is in my yard. :~D

Carol, I saw this one a couple of years ago and went looking for it, but no luck. I will continue to look - gorgeous vine!
