Soft Wooded Tree - Purple Flowers #299694

A client of mine has this Shrub / tree growing in a corner of her garden. It is very soft and fibrous and not very strong although it does grow to about 3m high. The client says to me it gets purple flowers which are very pretty almost looking like chrysanthemum flowers. The new leaves are fresh and bright green but quickly collapse after a week or two hanging down the side of the stem and quickly going mushy then dry.
