Hi Paul,
Bonsaimon asked me to have a look at this for you.
It looks like a "Glenn Dale Hybrid" possibly 'Gypsy'. These have genetics from all over but this I believe has indicum, formosa & southern indian genes. Very popular in the nursery trade.

Hope this helps,

Bob O

Thanks Bob and to BonsaiMon (Tom),

I appreciate the response. I was given this and a few others from a University greenhouse. They were said to be all indicums, but I am coming to find that they are as you say mostly hybrids of the indicum and others.....all that being said....Stunningly beautiful!

Thanks again.

Paul
