Rhododendron japonicum, Suring. (R. molle, Miq., not Don. Azalea
japonica, Gray. A. mollis, Hort., not Blume). Fig. 3392. Shrub, to 6
ft.: young branchlets glabrous, sometimes setose: winter buds glabrous:
lvs. obovate to obovate-oblong, obtuse and mucronate, cuneate at the
base, ciliate, glabrous or sparingly setose above, glabrous below
except setose on the midrib, 1 1/2-3 in. long: fls. in dense heads; pedicels setose; calyx-lobes
ovate, setose; corolla campanulate-funnelform, 2 in. across,
salmon-red, brick-red, or carmine; stamens shorter than limb. April,
May. Japan. F.S. 19:2032-6. Gn. 29, p. 551; 33. p. 324; 42, p. 369; 46,
p. 546; 59:403. Gn.M. 4:24. C.L.A. 4:210;5:147; 11:495. Gt. 16:556;
57:1575. M.D.G. 1906:556. G. 2:503;5:219. Gng.4:279. S.I.F. 2:62.—This
and the preceding species have been hybridized extensively with
R.luteum and the American azaleas and almost all the varieties now in
trade under the names of these two species are hybrids. The type of R.
japonicum has been reintro. from Japan by C.S. Sargent and that of R.
sinense from China by E.H. Wilson, and they have been distributed by
the Arnold Arboretum. R. japonicum is hardy at the Arnold Arboretum; R.
sinense is tenderer, but stands ordinary winters in favorable
positions.
