Imagine a large shrub, 7' x 7', glossy dark leaves, full of these bouquets: the Nodding or Bridal Veil Clerodendron. The best part is, I ignore this plant completely. Rarely needs water, I never fertilize it, and if it freezes I only lose a few branches at the top. Perfection!

Beautiful plant. One of the few things I miss about Florida is that you can have plants growing and blooming all year long.

That is nice! I have a friend who lives in Florida and he loves to post pictures of his flowers all winter on FB...guess just to make all of jealous!

Love your location on your avatar too....in front of the computer! HA!
