Lomatia sp.

Thought they were flies :-)

Phymosia rosea. Deep purple somewhat Abutilon like flowers (but actually
more closely related to mallows). I've only seen one specimen, grown on a
south facing terrace (and mislabelled as Malvaviscus arboreus, which I
doubt would be hardy).

Wollemia nobilis.

Thanks Stewart.
I had thought about a Wollemi Pine but they are expensive for their size.
However that puts me on another tack, how about ancient, prehistoric tree
species like the Wollemi?
Suggestions please...
