Our first offering of this recently named species which is closely related to R. dauricum..  This is said to be a fully evergreen version of dauricum with small glossy-green leaves which are fragrant and elliptic in shape.  Native from the Altai Mountains to E Siberia in open woodlands and on rocky slopes.  Should be very cold hardy and early blooming in cultivation.  Probably smaller in stature than typical dauricum.
