Nice and bright. Even looks like the leaf veins are a little rosy.

Lovely flowers got some a couple of years ago in a mixed seed packet from Lidl.  The flowers do not last very long, though they seem to produce quite a lot.  They unfortunately came up in a most unsutiable place for a climber.

Suttons do one call crimson rambler.

I saved a lot of the seeds of this plant, have them in a brown envelope, where is the best place to put this envelope, just in a cupboard in the kitchen??
