Oh thank your for the name Bernieh :)
It is known as "Christ tear drop here".
this plant almost died last year, but is coming back very strong now, and another little just growing aside

Oh I love your common name over there - I think ours was taken from the icon of the Sacred Heart of Jesus ... it's looking very healthy and happy now. Hope it keeps going strong for you.

I really like Clerodendrum thomsoniae also! I had
one for many years. It grows well as a small shrub...
even though it's usually sold as a vine.
It's commonly sold as bleeding heart vine here.

They're very tough plants. They just don't tolerate
cold very well.
