TESSA (praecox x moupinense) : A.M. 1935 
Stock is exceedingly scarce on this charming dwarf from Towercourt. It 
bloomed for us in early March and apparently did not mind the cold 
nights. The dark green foliage reminds one of Praecox and the flowers 
begin as rosy purple but when fully open are a beautiful rose pink, just 
like miniature trusses of the large hybrid “Alice”. It is compact in 
growth and one of the finest dwarf Rhododendrons in cultivation.
