I'm now back to searching for a Michelia. I found the Michelia champaca in seeds from a nursery here in Mexico.

I don't know if it would take forever for it to get to blooming size or whether it would do all right in a pot - I don't have garden room for it. I've never smelled the champaca, is it as strong a scent?
BTW, the prices are in Mexican pesos and $50p would be about $3.50 US at current rates. I would also have to pay a little more than that for shipping.
