This plant has grown to over 7 feet in my Orlando yard. Blooms profusely. Requires zero attention.

I have been growing this plant for several years and it returns each Spring and blooms around July in my Zone 8b/9a garden. I have seen it in other gardens in my area grow to heighths of about 6 foot and form a nice mass of plants to create an impressive shrub with interesting "pagoda" pyramid shaped bright orange flowers. It seems to be less invasive than some of the other Clerodendrum species -- it produces offshoots from its roots, but only within the immediate area of the parent plant.
