Bjørnar Olsen added: seeds collected in Yunnan Nujiang, western-side of Biluo Xueshan, altitude 2850m; pale pink, the flowers seem to open up considerably more in cultivation. Collected on the slopes of Biluo Xueshan, opposite Fugong, on the Mekong (Lancangjiang) – Salween (Nujiang) divide, not too far from the type location
