btw, the sumatrana cross looks very promising... we dont have that one here in singapore, but the sumatrana is everywhere and really easy to grow here.... along with ornata. velutina is a littlemore tricky (although it is still common here) as it leaves tend to burn more easily under the hot tropical sun. any experiences with that hybrid (think u have to start another thread)

will see what other pictures i can dig up. its so intersting to see what of tropicals are growing on the other side of the world.
