New Zealand Ribbon wood
From LoveToKnow Garden
New Zealand Ribbon-wood (Hoheria Populnea) - An evergreen shrub from New Zealand, in flower and habit like a coarse-leaved Deutzia, and not at all like the Mallows, to which it is related. It is hardy in the warmer parts of Ireland and in the south-west of England, a fine plant 10 feet high having flowered in the Trinity College Gardens, Dublin, for several years past. The pure white flowers are borne freely in clusters in autumn, and the sharply-tapering dark green leaves are deeply toothed. New Zealand. Seed or cuttings of the young shoots in spring.
