    Yes i bought it as striped, but after a few years it started to grow the red ones. I suppose I should cut off the red flowering wood, but I sort of like it as it is.

    You'll probably find that the red flowering part (being the natural colour) is more vigorous than the stipped bit and will eventually take over the entire plant.You know what they said in Jurasic Park 'nature will find a way'.
