Rhododendron campylogynum Franch.

Rhododendron campylogynum (独龙杜鹃), the bent-style rhododendron, is a rhododendron species native to northeast India and northeast Myanmar, where it grows at altitudes of 3,500–4,500 m (11,500–14,800 ft). It is a small creeping or prostrate shrub that grows 0.5–3 cm (0.20–1.18 in) in height, with leathery leaves, obovate to obovate-lanceolate in shape, up to 2.5 cm by 1.5 cm but often much smaller. The leaves are glandular and are strongly scented of myrrh when crushed. The flowers are purplish red or pink colour and of a distinctive simple, somewhat nodding, bell shape, borne singly or in pairs on a short stalk.

Rhododendron, from Ancient Greek ῥόδον (rhódon), meaning "rose", and δένδρον (déndron), meaning "tree", is a very large genus of about 1,024 species of woody plants in the heath family (Ericaceae). They can be either evergreen or deciduous. Most species are native to eastern Asia and the Himalayan region, but smaller numbers occur elsewhere in Asia, and in North America, Europe and Australia.
