East Indies, Java and Korea. A handsome Japanese shrub that will be valued for its neat Rhododendron-like foliage, compact habit of growth, and for the conspicuous bark which is of a warm reddish hue. The leaves are large and elliptic, six inches long, and are rendered strangely conspicuous from the foot-stalks and midrib being dull crimson, this affording a striking contrast to the delicate green of the leaves.
It grows freely in light sandy peat.
There are two well-marked forms, one named Daphniphyllum glaucescens viridis, in
which the red markings of the leaves are absent; and Daphniphyllum glaucescens
jezoensis, a pretty and uncommon variety.
