What is this?

I got this from a fellow gardener down south who didn't know what it was either. When I moved back to NY I brought some with me praying it would survive the first hard winter. It did and it puts on such a show that neighbors ask what it is and where I got, never seen it at any nursery. Notice it reaches the second floor over hang on a typical high ranch.
