Japan and all about the northen hemisphere. But I think this must be selected in Japan! Lovely pink bells at the stem tips on low evergreen bush in spring Great with dwarf rhododendrons. H20cm x W40cm Sun and a moist peaty soil with extra compost. The second photo shows it in comparison to Andromeda maccrophylla, although some say it is the only member of the genus Andromeda, which is slightly larger all round. They are ericaceous and only found in boggy and peaty places. Obviously avoid lime, but otherwise it grows very well in pots and rock gardens...
