Hi there i am a bit of a novice on the gardening front and we put this plant in our garden years ago and now love it but have no idea what it is and can't find it in any garden centres??

If anyone knows what this is there knowledge is massively appreciated:-)

Its the flowering pink plant

Thanks in advance

    I call it wax flower. 
    The botanical name is chamelaucium.

    Geraldton wax flower, a native of Western Australia.  Tender. Are you in the UK?

    I thought it was leptospermum, but I might , as is so often the case, be wrong.

    Leptospermum more likely in UK.

    Hosta must be right then. I don't grow it, just thought I recognized it from when I was a florist. Sorry😟.
