Flowers - Clerodendrum Ugandense 'Blue Butterfly'



aka Blue Butterfly Glorybower. I LOVE THIS PLANT. Love it, love it, love it. But it's tender, the other one's already died on me during the winter. Can't take cold temps below 40. Maybe even 50 will cause it to sulk, haven't really observed it.

The flowers are just amazing, unusual, and beautiful. Continuous bloom throughout growing season. The leaves are a gorgeous glossy green, well-formed bushy and very tidy. Deciduous. Have it in spot that gets full sun for half day.
