Grewia?

Anyone here have any experience with Grewia (Lavender Star Flower - Grewia occidentalis) as bonsai? I can't seem to find much when I google for it. I found a young piece of stock, I've been trying not to buy real young things anymore, but the flowers on this were irresistable and it was cheap. I'll post a pic of the flowers tomorrow. About the best info that I've gotten is that they don't like to dry out, but not much else. There were a few displayed at an International Bonsai Flowering Tree symposium, so I at least know that others have used them for bonsai. I was curious if anyone had any tips.
