Paul, don't follow the first link.

Named in 1912 for Bee's Nursery in England, this autumn flowering softwood shrub is growing well in Australia. It is native to China and Burma.

Reputed to take mild frosts it looks very exciting for Cornwall, or a conservatory in England.

Has anyone seen it?  Or know of a source in The UK?

That’s a lovely plant! I could see that in my greenhouse (if there were any room!).

Those leaves look suspiciously like Red Spider habitat to me! None of the Genus appear to be in the plant finder, I wonder if there is a seed source?
