I bought this as Rhododendron groenlandicum, which clearly it isn't.

Similar to this, Rhododendron 'Curlew', but leaves are different.

Rhododendron calophytum, mucronulatum, dauricum, leucaspis hybrids and R. rex in flower here.

jrc, I can always send you groenlandicum seed if you don't land a plant.  The bogs here are full of it.
