Description: The flowers are unusually large for such a small plant and could be mistaken for some sort of dwarf Rhododendron. I'm not sure if the four petals here are typical (Rhododendron usually have five). I suspect its closest relatives might actually be Rhodothamnus. Date: 30 March 2011, 12:18.
