Nice capture. I think it is a Clerodendrum thomsoniae or Bleeding Heart Vine. I have a couple of photos of Clerodendrums in different colours in the glasshouse at RHS Wisley. Very exotic plants.
Thanks Jude. It was in the tropical house of the Wintergardens, so that fits. I am becoming embarrassingly reliant on (but extremely grateful for) your botanical knowledge π
Oh! How lovely! This would be just perfect to print on a black silk scarf I think! Or some other clothes. Maybe a kimono-styled gown or something. Anyway, just beautiful! xxxxxx
Thank you π It would be a lovely pattern for fabric. I have so many fabric design ideas, I really need to add “find out about printing fabric” to my list. Handmade totes with original fabrics — now there’s an idea!
Very dramatic, Su!

Looks somewhat like what we call a Bleeding Heart in US.
