Vaccineum nummularia

i think Rhododendron sp??

Sirji you are right—-it is Rhododendron sp. (species not identified this time). Vaccinium nummularia —is totally different!

Thanks for the feedback …

I think there is some mix up. I photographed the flowers followed by the plate. May be the vaccineum was not flowering at that time and attributed the name to this Rhododendron flower. I checked with Google images for the same and it totally looks different.

Lovely pics of one more Rhododendron
