Clianthus Puniceus

I hope that mine will flower this well........

Are you living in the UK or on my side of the world? I saw this one in a GC we visited today .... about twice as tall as the white one I put into the garden last week ... twice the price too. I was very tempted to get it, as it does look very pretty in the red, & it had quite a few flowers on it. Might sneak back in a couple of days lol. But have to think where I would site it. Still, as I said to my husband, it might just as well sit in our backyard waiting for a place, as in the GC! Is yours flowering now?

Stuck in the UK.
I bought mine a few weeks ago in the sale at a local GC - a couple of metres tall for £3!
Should flower in the spring, but will need winter protection.

Wow! 3.00! That would be around NZ$8. I paid around $15 for mine, & the red one I saw today was $18, but twice as tall .... nowhere near 2 mtrs though. That was a bargain. We don't need to give winter protection over here, but yours should flower nicely in the spring. Will look forward to seeing a pic.

Sorry to boast, but I got a white and red one for £3 each!! Reduced from £16 each!
