Read about Vaccinium varingifolium in the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture
Vaccinium erythrinum, Hook. An erect, glabrous, evergreen shrub, with bright red twigs: lvs. ovate, obtuse, coriaceous, entire: fls. in long, 1-sided, terminal racemes; corolla cylindraceous, 5-toothed, 1/2 in. long, purple-red; anthers without terminal tubes. Mountains of Java. B.M. 4688. J.H. III. 34:39; III. 51:593. J.F. 4:364. —"Sent to England in 1852, and since grown by various nurserymen as a greenhouse plant. It is a strong plant, furnishing an abundance of bloom in Dec. and Jan. Not remarkable, but worthy of a place in collections. A very distinct type." The position of this species is doubtful. The absence of anther-tubes suggests that it may not belong to the genus Vaccinium. The above text is from the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture. It may be out of date, but still contains valuable and interesting information which can be incorporated into the remainder of the article. Click on "Collapse" in the header to hide this text.
