From GE. It’s on the tip of my tongue.

This shrub grows to about 4m. It has roughly heart-shaped leaves ranging in size up to a little larger than a 50c coin. The leaves have a slightly velvety feel. Their colour begins as burgundy and fades to a pale yellowy-green, then orange before they fall. (The shrub is deciduous) Sometimes the underside of the leaves can be yellowy-green while the upper surface is burgundy. Further to the north (Gympie area) the leaves of this same shrub are almost red and retain their colour longer. It has white sticky sap (euphorbia genus?) and insignificant yellow flowers. The shrub has multiple trunks. Bark is smooth. The trunks and branches all have rings spaced along their full length; these rings DON’T appear to be associated with new shoots. The shrub in question is thriving in SE Queensland (Upper Brisbane River valley)

I was, but I re-read the post and the leaves are too small, i think.
