Hi folks,

Is anyone able to name this plant?

All I know is that it's growing in Perth and is a shrub of about 4 to 5 feet
(at the moment anyway).

Any help appreciated.

Gee, I've never seen that plant before! My guess is 'some kind of
magnolia', but I'll wait with bated breath for better-informed
responses! It's very pretty, isn't it?

Hi Allen,

At a guess I think you'll find this flower is Grewia occidentalis or in
laymans terms Lavender Star Flower from South Africa.

Wouldn't mind a cutting myself. Problem is, I'm in Scotland and the Photo
was taken in Perth, Aus. Probably wouldn't grow here anyway
