Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Josh McCullough's collection from the lower slopes of northern Vietnam's Fan Xi Pan mountain. A beautiful, evergreen, groundcovering forest dweller. Though we are as yet unsure of its hardiness, we suspect a USDA zone 9 or upper zone 8 cutoff. Worth a try in milder gardens where summer water is plentiful or as an attractive container plant anywhere. Would prefer shade or dappled sunlight.
