| I think it's a type of hydrangea, but I can't really tell from your photo. Look at this website and compare to the real thing. Carla in Sac |

| Hi Carla, Thanks for the response, but I don't think it's a hydrangea. It looks more like the Rubiaceae family to me. But, I really don't know. Thanks again. |

| Clerodendrum bungei - and it is very invasive, so think twice.... |

| It's beautiful. Lots of horror stories about it. A big pot with a tray under it so the invasive runners can't run free might be the ticket. Renee |

| Cashmere Bouquet is the common name for it. It does send out runners and can take over the garden, but not nearly as invasive as a mint. In a shady part of the garden or better yet in a container it is able to fill a spot. |
