Another fave, Hywel! They seed well and cuttings are really easy. in the autumn I take a small cutting and root them in water. They will live all winter in water if I'm careful about refreshing it. Had a friend who grew it as a houseplant...it was 8 ft tall and filled her balcony window..and the vibrant red colour...it was exeptional.

I've never had any success in keeping them over winter. Maybe I'll try again this year.
