A variable evergreen azalea with long hairs lying flat against the stems and both sides of the leaves.The narrowly elliptic leaves of this species are much larger than those of most evergreen azaleas.The large and showy flowers (late spring) are rose-purple.A vigorous and unusual azalea that is rarely seen in cultivation as it has not been collected often and is too tender to most regions.It is native to Luzon in the Philippines where it occurs in mountain forests
