The red is always dangerous. Somehow it offset the greens.

Yes. And I have the impression that it is still true in this picture.
I use to make a manual white balance before I shoot pictures of red tulips or poppies.

clipped reds?

My guess is the reds are clipped but so what? It's all compromise anyway.

I think reds do always get clipped somehow. It is less obvious with E-500 than with C-8080 though. With C-8080 I had to always compensate the exposure on reds (or use spot metering) and there seemed to be on other way about it. Somehow it is different with E-500; I actually moved levels sliders inwards to add red even more intense rendition. But yes, if you keep your finger on 'Alt' while moving the levels slider red will always show. It is the brightest of three channels.
