Thanks, Nenella. The camera has captured the color pretty well in this case.

Ron - It is absolutely gorgeous both in color and form, if it is smaller than other clones, who gives a fig, contrary to popular belief, bigger is not always better. With brutal heat here in Central Florida, I have had to settle for Sophronitis cernua, a poor substitute for coccinea. Looks like I should consider building a cold case.
