I have Chandelier Tree (Medinilla cumingii) that looks pretty ratty most of the time. I'm zone 9a and it's a container plant sitting beneath a tree in the backyard. Next year we'll be living in zone10a where it's a little warmer in winter so I'm going to plant it in the yard somewhere and I think it will do much better. I like it okay but I'd love to find a M. magnifica because it's absolutely gorgeous!
