I get myself around nurseries privately instead, it does amaze me that different plants and different growing techniques are used in different parts of the country/world. The guys at work are unloading my latest buying trip today.
fingers crossed its a lorry filled with large specimens of Photinia wisteria bamboos cyathea rhodo's and lots of other bits an bob's from spain and france.

I would take wallabys advice over mine as it sounds like she has had closer experience of clem armandii where as my experience is only buying and selling. I have to say if she knows a plant she REALLY knows a plant so if she can't grow them then it must be hard work.
