This exquisite species is one of the commonest and most typical plants on 
the mountain, occurring on the open serpentine ridge up to the dwarf forest 
which abuts on the granite core, where in February it was still in bud. The 
habit is peculiar, the plant consisting of a few untidy, straggling branches 
1 m. or more in length, the young shoots being densely covered with a 
brown tomentum, while the young foliage is red. The corollas are a most 
delicate pink, varying to white and sometimes over an inch in length, and a 
perfect oval in shape.
