Description
 
A species not often encountered for sale, the 2019 RHS Plant Finder lists but two sources in the UK and they won't have many.  Neither do we but we want someone else besides us here in the colonies to enjoy this plus this will give that collector's itch a good scratching.  A stout, smaller species with yellow flowers that is related to R. humeana.  This was described as a species in 1982 from a George Forrest collection near Dali in Yunnan.
