Acalypha wilkinsiana 'Jungle Dragon' - Jungle Dragon Copper Plant

Gorgeous warm night? What's that?

Sorry, it's just that we are having a blinkin awful summer at the moment - unlike you.

Love your photos Delonix1.

Frybo:

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the photos!

Sorry to hear you're having such an awful summer! :>(

Yes, it was a nice comfortable 80ºF/27ºC at 8:00 p.m. last night.

Ohhh, that's beautiful Andy. Gorgeous colours. :o)

Lindalooloo:

Thanks! :>)

Yes, Acalypha varieties have some of the most colorful, flamboyant leaves of any shrub. I have posted several varieties.

Here's some pics:

Thankyou Andy;
Have had a look at them all, and love them all.
Love the Raggedy Anne variety. So feathery looking.
The colours of them are stunning. So red and firey. :o)

That's a lovely looking colourful plant...

Lindalooloo:

Glad you enjoyed the pics! I love Acalyphas...I've always grown a few varieties. I currently have 4 varieties. The one posted is the only one in the ground...the others are in pots, which they hate.

Crissue:

Thanks! Most varieties have very colorful large leaves.

Certainly stands out...makes a good show...

Yes, this tropical South Seas native makes a bold statement. :>)
