Comments:
Produces clusters, up to 12 per cluster, of strikingly beautiful scarlet flowers in summer and fall. It can be grown as far north as zone 8b, where it is commonly killed to the ground in winter. However, where the roots are mulched, it will come back in spring. They are also grown in containers and protected from freezing. It has dark green foliage on vines that grow up to 30 feet in length. It produces green, oval shaped, edible fruit in autumn.
