NEERLANDs Tuin - Clerodendrum (440 words)
Er is geen goede Nederlandse naam voor Clerodendrum en ook is deze struik geen regelmatige verschijning in de tuin.
Clerodendrum thomsoniae bloeit met geelwitte bloemen met een rode kroonkelk, maar is uitsluitend geschikt om in een kas te worden gehouden.
Clerodendrum bungei is ook wat betreft z'n bloemkleur een buitenbeentje: de struik bloeit met een bolvormige, kort gesteelde bloemtros die bezet is met vijftallige, roze lintbloemen, waaruit witte meeldraden steken.
