An interesting and attractive ornamental related to blueberries and rhododendrons. This is a tender evergreen shrub with large thick leathery leaves and racemes of striking rose-red flowers tipped with white. The flowers are shaped like a long narrow bell narrowing to the tip. The large berries are like fleshy reddish blueberries. Quite different from anything most people have seen in cultivation. Requires excellent drainage.

RSBG  This species was supposedly collected in Mexico. Very attractive for the greenhouse or mild climate. (+25?)  RSBG
