    My cousin, who lives in CA posts lovely plant pictures on facebook frequently. This was a recent picture that many of us would like to identify.

    What a lot of names this thing has, or has had:

    From Tropikos:
    !Clerodendrum myricoides (Hochst.) R. Br. ex Vatke (not sure what the "!" means)
    Cyclonema myricoides (Hochst.) Hochst.
    Rotheca myricoides (Hochst.) Steane & Mabb., mentioned by David in L A, noted by Tropikos as the accepted name
    Siphonanthus myricoides (Hochst.) Hiern​
    and on Wikipedia
    Clerodendrum ugandense Prain, mentioned by Tyrlych
    Spironema myricoides Hochst. (basionym)​
    In the 2003 posting by Douglas Justice, in the thread Daniel linked to
    Clerodendrum myricoides 'Ugandense'​

    Somewhere in there it changed family from Verbenaceae to Lamiaceae, or maybe it's still also in Verbenaceae.
