Jeanette Fryer considers this name is OK. As Surajit (see below) correctly points out, this is an introduced species. C.pannosus was first introduced into France and then distributed from Paris to other botanic gardens incl. Kew back in 1892. It is common in cultivation in warm temperate zones of both northern & southern hemispheres. It has escaped and naturalised in the US, where it can be found far from habitation. It is cultivated in Mexico, Chile, Argentina, South Africa and New Zealand.
Native to Yunnan and possibly Tibet.
