Mine in a fairly shady spot are true purple, not red.

Great thanks u outsteeler that was the color I was hoping for the reddish tone though nice does not go where I planned.?

I had planned on 2 plants on a 93” oblique with Evelyn. I understand it is called a “thug” but I am going for faster results. Your opinion: is 2 too many?

I do think two is a lot but if you’re okay with moving one to a different spot in a couple years you’d probably be fine

I have mine by cream veranda who is like a paler shade of Evelyn. great minds think alike!
