A small M , averaging six feet in height, rounded in form, of n bright cheerful green hue, and which, when loaded
vith its inflorescence of surpassing delicacy and grace, claims precedence over its more gaudy congeners, and has always been
■egarded by me as the most charming of the Sikkim Rhododendrons. The plant exhales a grateful honeyed flavour from its
0°3ly bells and a resinous sweet odour from the stipitate glands of the petioles, pedicels, calyx, and capsules. I m * on
W e r petioles, three-quarters of an inch long, coriaceous but not thickin texture, two to three and ahslf inches long, one and
three-quarters to two inches broad, cordate at the base, rounded and mucronate at the apex, in all characters, except the
evanescent glandular pubescence and spherical buds, undistmguislmble from Mododcnlron Tlwmmti. Mo,ms horizontal
and nodding. Corolla truly campanulate, delicate in, texture, tinged of a sulphur hue and always spotless, nearly two
inches long, broader across the lobes, which are finely veined. The pedicels of thé capsules radiate horizontally from the
apices of the ramuli, and the capsules themselves curve upwards with a semicircular arc; they are about an inch long,
always loosely covered with stipitate glands.
