Bleeding-Heart Vine Red Flowering Live Plant in 4inch pot

Indirect sunlight, water twice a week

The Bleeding-Heart Vine Red Plant (Clerodendrum splendens), also known as Flaming Glorybower or Tropical Bleeding Heart, is a stunning flowering vine known for its vivid red, trumpet-shaped flowers and lush green foliage. It belongs to the Lamiaceae (mint) family and is native to West Africa.

Key Features:

• Flowers: Produces clusters of bright red, tubular flowers that attract butterflies and hummingbirds. Unlike Clerodendrum thomsoniae, which has red flowers with white bracts, C. splendens features all-red blooms.
• Leaves: Dark green, glossy, heart-shaped leaves provide a beautiful contrast to the flowers.
• Growth Habit: A woody, twining vine that can be trained to climb trellises, fences, and arbors. It can also be pruned into a shrub-like form.
• Size: Can grow 8 to 12 feet tall, with proper support.

Growing Conditions:

• Light: Prefers full sun to partial shade. More sunlight encourages abundant flowering.
• Soil: Thrives in rich, well-draining soil with organic matter.
• Watering: Needs consistent moisture, but avoid waterlogging. Let the topsoil dry slightly between waterings.
