Native to Jamaica, this evergreen woody vine is commonly cultivated all around
the
world. The ornamental features are
its foliage and the flowers. The leaves are palmately divided into five to
seven segments, and are very atractive smooth green color. The noticable long
red flowers are in groups. Even before the flowers emerge the buds are a
positive feature, because they look like small berries.
