paris in summer

I love this one too, Welcome by the way!

Thank you everyone . I bought this from Heronswood several years ago as Paris polyphylla . Finally got it in a new bed in a prominent spot . The amount of seed in the pods was not what I expected . Always need more . The flower in my name tag is Schimlinia floribunda . It is the cross of Schima argentea and Franklinia alatamaha . The seedlings were lined out and this is a cutting listed as best . Thanks to Tom Ranney for successfully making this cross . His work with mahonia is much anticipated .

I have seen the P.polyphilla before - very unusual - again!

What a lovely plant, I like it very much :)
