    1. Hi Carolyn,
      I wrote about this beautiful, large plant which was in flower in the green house at the Royal Botanic Garden Sydney. It is a rare plant and I have not been able to find anyone selling it in Australia. You might visit the RBG in Sydney and find out more about it, they may have some more ideas.
      Happy gardening,
