Description: Rhodoleia ChampioniiAlso known as the Hong Kong RoseThis here is an absolutely gorgeous flower we have stumbled upon. This plant occurs naturally in China (Guangdong Province and Hong Kong), Bhutan, Vietnam and Nepal. Rare in cultivation, this shrub/tree will be covered in these enchanting bright crimson pink 'rose like' blooms. Despite its common name 'rose', it does not have thorns. It is small to medium size ordinarily to about 15-20m tall, but has been known to grow twice this height. It is said to withstand temperatures into the teens and possibly lower, though it grows well where the summers are hot and will bloom during the cool parts of the year. It prefers well drained, but moist soil. It is bird-pollinated.The flowers do resemble Rhododendron, but they are not related at all. They are in fact a member of the Hamamelidaceae, surprisingly the Witch Hazel family.*As of 2010 the Chinese University of Hong Kong listed this species on the top 25 rare and protected species of plant.This offer is for 25+ seeds! We also offer this speices in packs of 250, and 500 seeds in our store!For complete transparency we include payment processing & Ebay fees in our shipping/handling cost.*DISCLAIMER*NO RETURNS/REFUNDS/REPLACEMENTS ON SEEDSMost specialty seeds we offer are NOT fast to germinate.Many take several weeks, months, and some even up towards a year depending on dormancy, region, season etc. It is important that the buyer understands that seeds are perishable products and seed germination can be adversely affected by such factors as mold/fungus, bugs, temperature, moisture content, light intensity, dormancy, care, contamination of planting media among many other reasons. These factors are totally out of The Plant Attraction's control and are the buyer's responsibility and risk. Germination recommendations are sent with each order and the buyer is free to research and use their own methods. Floating seeds do not always indicate that the seed is not viable. Many times it is a misconception because the seed does not have the density to sink in water. Accordingly, The Plant Attraction does not guarantee seeds to perform properly regardless of conditions or buyer's methods or mistakes. Since 2006 we have been doing our best to hand sort and provide the freshest, cleanest harvest that is free of defects and bugs.
