S.I.F. 2:62.—This and the preceding species have been hybridized extensively with R.luteum and the American azaleas and almost all the varieties now in trade under the names of these two species are hybrids. The type of R. japonicum has been reintro. from Japan by C.S. Sargent and that of R. sinense from China by E.H. Wilson, and they have been distributed by the Arnold Arboretum. R. japonicum is hardy at the Arnold Arboretum; R. sinense is tenderer, but stands ordinary winters in favorable positions. The above text is from the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture.
