Probably a Schizophragma

I think you've cracked it! That rings a loud bell. We have planted one
in
a shaded corner of the house and it has been there two years. It's just
starting to get going.

Thanks again but I fear not Schizophragma as so many of the individual
florets were sterile~~each of the heads was similar to a 'mophead'. It was
many years ago that I saw it~~I'm sure my memory hasn't failed me. It was an
important day for me otherwise.
A splendid pink Schizophragma climbs Barns House.
