We love this little wild Chinese blueberry so much that we have exhausted all our (and worthy peers') deductive abilities on trying to put a name to it's button-cute face. Alas we must continue putting out sadly desperate ads in the classifieds in hope of a lead that will result in a future rendezvous. In the meantime we will share tales of our infatuation in physical form with you, our loyal listeners. The diminutive size of the overall plant pairs nicely with the relatively large and thick leaves of roughly spoon shape which are some of the most attractive in the genus. The flowers held in the leaf axils are a dead-ringer for the pneumatic tops of jellyfish, semitransparency and all. Epiphytic in the wild and hardiness is just a guess for now but we will let you know when we get a good test on it.
