I had a very small, dwarf, azalea or rhodie. Lost the tag, then lost the plant this past horrible winter. It had very small, distinctly rounded leaves, no more than 1/2 to 3/4 inch long. Definitely NOT pointed leaves, and was kind of twiggy looking. It was quite young, and it was evergreen. Got it originally for potential bonsai. I remember asking the vendor if it was hardy and she told me it was as hardy as they come, important because I was growing it on a balcony, not in a garden. Can anyone think of a plant that fits this description? I recall the name was a bit long. I don't think it sounded like a cultivar name and I'm reasonably sure it was not Japanese. From what I recall, I do think it was a latin name. Know for sure it was not a Satsuki azalea. I'm in zone 6 and it was sold to me by a local specialist nursery. Had I been planting it in the ground it would have been guaranteed. Sadly, the lady at the nursery has been ill, and I'm not able to get in touch with her to ask if she can recall what it might have been. Sure wish I hadn't lost that tag.
