Flowers are orange, red and pink, giving an overall tricoloured effect.  Keep pinching out the tips in spring to encourage bushy growth. Water and feed well in the summer and keep dryish during winter. Propagate by semi-ripe cuttings in summer. Reputed to be hardy to -5c but may need winter protection. This plant is toxic.
