RHODODENDRON (smirnowii x yakushimanum) Partain Form
|
Hybridized/Introduced By: introduced by Partain Parentage: (smirnowii x yakushimanum) Partain Form
Description: Yes, we know—another (smirnowii X yakushimanum) clone for which we have a weakness. We collect them, and have about 15
different forms, and although the flowers all strongly resemble
the well-known 'Ken Janeck' and 'Mist Maiden', this plant
form and foliage have distinctive differences. This clone has
very dark green leaves and is smaller growing and dome shaped
with a tan dusting of tomentum on top of the leaf for added
interest; and of course, the fuzzy tan indumentum on the leaf
underside.
