Native Rhododendron (Rhododendron lochiae)

Australia’s only native Rhododendron is a small shrub found on the cloudy summits of about 10 mountains in north Queensland, where it grows among rocks and as an epiphyte on rainforest trees.
With plenty of supplementary watering, it and a cutting I took from it are doing well in my garden in a position where they get morning sun but shade for the rest of the day.

A great shot of these lovely flowers. The native rhododendron I've seen here, inland from Vancouver, is mauve - not sure about it being "native". V
PS You do well with your cuttings :)

Bell-like flowers, somewhat similar to our native shrub honeysuckle! V
