This might be pushing your expertise a little to far. I didn’t have my camera.
Shrub/ tree with azalea sort of dark green leaves and the flowers are very distinctive. Red Chinese lantern type things hanging down. 
Any ideas ?

Abutilon ?? Several types - here's one!

Crinodendron hookerianum? Aka Chilean lantern tree?

That’s pretty, but not that.

You’re a star . That’s the Fella     . Thank you.

Excellent stuff. They're lovely and surprisingly hardy for how exotic they look I think.

I’m attempting to taking cuttings from one.

I have one in the garden Sc, so I will try some cuttings for you as well

Thank you Spec   . That’s very kind of you. It’s a lovely looking plant.

Hhmmm, you've got me thinking now. I'm considering if I have space for one now.
