help- FL retailers that ship?

17 years ago

I am dying to find this tropical plant I first saw at the Biltmore in North Carolina. It's called a Cleodendrum-Brandonii - which is the variegated form. I find it in California, but no one wants to ship it. I haven't found it closer to home. For all those who purchase those beautiful tropical plants, where do you purchase from that will ship retail??

I have used www.mgonline.com
Take a look at their website.
The "MG" stands for "master gardener."

I was trying to find references to your plant, and came up with this one. It seems that the object of your dreams is considered invasive in HI. I'd love to see a photo of the full plant instead of just a closeup of leaves and blooms.

Here is a link that might be useful: HI invasive plants

Try doing a google.com search for lau'awa flower. It looks exactly like Clerodendrum bungii, which is an invasive weed here in NW Florida.
