Love them both, but can't grow them here due to cold and I don't have a big enough house or greenhouse to over winter them.

I lost my Clerodendrum thomsoniae last winter which was unusually cold here. I sure miss it.
Razaak, I had a Clerodendrum thomsoniae also. However, this plant is also sold here as Clerodendrum thomsoniae "Delectum", C. speciosum, C. delectum, C. phillippinum, and C. balfouri. I will check further to determi PlayNDirt wrote: htop, I bet you are where I got my vine!
