The polysporas are very underrated Camellia relatives. Once gordonias
they are upright shrubs with handsome glossy large foliage and huge white camellia like flowers with a boss of golden yellow stamens.
Obviously lime-free conditions and not for the coldest gardens
but have proven much hardier than originally thought.
