Description
Rhododendron camelliiflorum GR#0834 Open-growing evergreen shrubs with smooth and peeling reddish bark and densely scaly leaves. The small waxy flowers (early to mid-summer) are camellia-like with a broad tube and widely spreading lobes. They range in color from white to cream, pink or wine-red. A very distinct and unusual species unrelated to any other. From seed collected wild in the Eastern Himalaya where it grows as an epiphyte and thus requires excellent drainage in cultivation.
