Rhododendron sinense, Sweet (R. molle, Don. Azalea sinensis, Lodd.
A. mollis, Blume). Shrub, to 5 ft.: young branchlets pubescent and
often setose: winter buds grayish pubescent: lvs. oblong to
oblong-oblanceolate, obtuse and mucronate, cuneate at the base, ciliate
and often revolute at the margins, soft-pubescent beneath, 2 1/2-3 1/2
in. long: fls. in many-fld. heads; pedicels puberulous; calyx-lobes
short, rounded, ciliate; corolla campanulate-funnelform, yellow, upper
lobe spotted greenish, 2 in. across; stamens shorter than limb. April,
May. China. B.R. 1253. L.B.C. 9:885.—Tenderer than the following
species with which it has been confused. It has entered largely into
the parentage of the so-called Ghent azaleas, and some of them,
particularly Anthony Koster, are little different from true R. sinense.
