Read detailed description :

Drooping bunches of original blood-red flowers on red stems appear in May-June, starting from a young age. The blood-red fruit follows in September, about the size of a pea, in lovely hanging bunches of 15-20cm. Frutification will be more abundant if near others of its variety. The most rustic and vigorous of its species in Europe. Appreciates a sheltered exposure, in the half shade. Discovered by Ernst Faber on Mount Emei in 1887.
