It's a Pewter Bush (Strobilanthes lanatus)

Thanks! One to look for. I would think that the "z8" rating is way off for something native to Sri Lanka.

The file had already been loaded before I added my photos, so I am unable to 'up' the Zone temperature, but I am quite happy to send a message to Admin to do so. This plant obviously grows well in our temperatures.

I know you hadn't done that. Sometimes Dave Garden people guess based on where they live and are growing..indoors.
