B) totally loses its leaves during winter;

Very nice red colouration, KC. Just wonder if it maintain it's red colouration in our climate. If so, it will be nice. It's kind of difficult to keep red VFTs totally red in prolong hot weather. Those red forms from Cameron last time are extremely beautiful, entire plant in dark maroon colour. But they turned greenish maroon after a while in the lowland weather.
Please tell us if this one maintain it's colour.
