It’s been growing in the Oriental Garden since 2001, and now flowers regularly. You will find it if you walk towards the Oriental Garden from the Botanic Gardens Kiosk - when you reach the wisteria pergola it is in the first bed on the left. <br />There is another in the nursery waiting to be planted out. Both are progeny from specimens collected on Bob Cherry’s trip to China’s Yunnan Provence east of the town of Simao in 1989. <br />Our database also records one plant at Mount Tomah.<br />Simon Goodwin - Gardens Information Officer - Royal Botanic Gardens and DomainSimon Goodwinnoreply@blogger.com
