Ternstroemia gymnanthera I believe. HTH Chris Here is a link that might be useful: Japanese Cleyera

Again, I don't know what size you want your shrubs to reach, but I'm planning on buying some purple smoke bushes, (Cotinus coggygria Atropurpurea) for my sunny bern. According to the limited reading I've done, and maybe others can help me out here, but the newest cultivars of Hydrangea, specifically the "All summer Beauty" (HYDRANGEA macrophylla) variety claims to do well in Full Sun. I always thought hydrangea's were more of a partial shade shrub, but this one claims that it can tolerate full sun. Another shrub I want to buy for my sunny spot is the ST. JOHNS WORT, (HYPERICUM Hidcote : H. PATULUM, GOLDENCUP) and I'm also going to plant some of the reblooming lilacs ( Syringa 'Josee'). The more I look at abelias, the more interested in them I am. Darn, I just reread your post and saw that you wanted evergreens. I guess I'd go with the azaleas, or rhodies, or there are even some mountain laurels that can tolerate full sun. I was thinking of getting a variegated Daphne, (Daphne odora 'Aureomarginata') and that's an evergreen for full sun. Or a camelia? Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

I meant to say copperleaf. Dave's Garden says that Irish petticoats and Hoffmannii are one in the same. Curly Ruffle might be another name for it too.

Asclepiad_fan: I paid EUR 4 for it last week, but then I live in the country where it was grown. Here is the website of the nursery: http://www.smitkwekerijen.nl/. If you go to the "Eden collection" page from the menu and scroll down a bit you can download an English brochure. I have quite a number of plants that have come from this nursery, the quality of their plants us outstanding. Cactusmcharris: by all means. If you'd like me to take a better-lit shot do let me know, this was just a quick snapshot for the purpose of this thread.
