I wonder if they're available in the US.

This is the one that I have which was planted this last year. It's about
6-7 ft tall and about 3 ft across. Bees love it. I'm here in the northwest
across the sound from Seattle. I have little knowledge in actually growing
this. But for Dave in Menlo Park, you might, if you haven't already, take
a trip up to San Francisco and see the Eucryphia's in Strybing Arboretum.

Their 1970 plant list shows the following:
E. billardieri
E. cordifolia
E. glutinosa
E. x intermedia 'Rostrevor'
E. x nymansensis 'Nymansay'
E. x nymansensis 'Mt. Usher'
