Western Szech'uan: cultivated as an ornamental plant in

 Szemao, alt. 1200 m., A. Henry (No. 12060). Fokien: Dunn's Exped.

According to the Index Kewensis Clerodendron speciosissimum Paxton (in Mag. 

 Bot. III. 217, t. 271, fig., t. [1837]; in Hort. Belg. III. 322, t. 68 [1837]. — Loiseleur- 

 Deslongchamps in Herb. Amat. s6r. 2, I. t. 92 [1839]) belongs here, but that plant 

 differs apparently in its much smaller calyx and in the pubescent under surface 

 of the leaves, though in its general appearance it strongly resembles C. japonicum, 

 and may after all be a form of that species.
