Re: Viburnum hanceanum
Kitty,
No, definitely Viburnum hanceanum, named for Dr. Henry Fletcher
Hance, an English botanist who served in the British Consular Service in
Canton Province and Hong Kong in the second half of the nineteenth century.
As I mentioned, you will not find it in most of the usual sources: nothing
in Dirr, Hortus, Hillier, Bean, Krussmann, Flint, Rehder, or RHS, but some
folks are out there growing it.
