Vine with red and white flowers

15 years ago

A number of years ago, I bought a hanging basket with beautiful small red and white flowers. Not a fuschia! It thrived in the shade and lived happily for years. I know it was not winter-hardy in my zone, so I brought it in and over-wintered in a south window. I can't remember the name of this to save my life. Any thoughts/suggestions? I think if I see a name it will ring a bell.

I found it! Glory Bower(Clerodendrum thomsoniae). I bought a small hanging basket of this years ago at HD and it lived pretty happily for years. I gave it to my son because of space limits, and he promptly killed it. :-(

I've been looking for it locally ever since, but never saw it again. The hunt is on!!! If any of you folks know where I can find one of these, I'd appreciate it.
