Stump your horticultural friends with this one. Very pale lilac, bell-shaped flowers, purple spotted on the inside - reminding us a bit of Calceolaria blooms -- appear in summer on this 2-3 ft, evergreen shrub from New Zealand. Prefers part to full shade and consistently moist soil. A collector plant, but easy. Can be cold hardy in USDA zone 8.
