Not Kaho. Maybe 'Asahi-no-Hikari'.

I can't tell the difference between 'Asahi no Hikari' and 'Gyoten'. But because I see no white flowers I guess 'Gyoten'. But then I have seen pictures where 'Gyoten' has white flowers and where 'Asahi no Hikari' has only lightly coloured ones.

That would be a really BIG 'gyoten'. I see too much green in the throat, too pale, and too wavey of petals to be 'gyoten'.

I think you are right. Colours is hard to judge in pictures. But I can see the flower wavyness argument.

Anyway, the main difference in dictionary description is pale pink for 'Asahi no Hikari' vs pale purple red.

Daniel, we've given you the information - 'Asahi-no-Hikari', NOT 'Kaho'.

You're lucky to have such a large satsuki, such a beautiful bonsai, and such a beautiful flower as 'Asahi-no-hikari'.

Good luck!!

Twoja azalia jest 'Asahi-no-Hikari'.

Maybe that helps.

Nice site, but it's still not 'Kaho'.

But since you are convinced that is what you have, congratulations on your lovely 'Kaho' that's 1 m high with nebari 45 cm wide.

I officially give up.

Hi Daniel,
Here are a few close up pictures of my Asahi no hikari for you to compare with your trees flowers. I hope that will help

Daniel,

Please understand that it is EXTREMELY difficult to identify the vast majority of satsuki from pictures. It is true that many are obvious and rather easy. But for others it can be a matter of splitting hairs. The site you reference is very limited. It should show the variety of several flowers for a specific satsuki and not just one. I think this is where your confusion is coming from.

Also, 'Kaho' is almost all white with splashes of pink, both solid dark pink and a softer pink with speckles in the throat. Your plant has too much pink for 'Kaho', so I would then say 'Gyoten'. BUT your satsuki is HUGE and the flower has a wavy edge, so I go from 'Kaho'/'Gyoten' to 'Eikan/'Asahi-no-hikari'. 'Eikan' is also mostly white so I exclude it too, which leaves us 'Asahi-no-hikari', a sport of 'Eikan' with many shade of pink. Some are pale like the picture on the site you show, others are darker like Xuan's. The name means "light of dawn", very appropriate, don't you think?

Your satsuki is so big that even without flowers I would have guessed 'Eikan'. It's almost too big to be 'Kaho'. Some of the biggest satsuki bonsai in Japan are 'Eikan'. It grows very fast and develops into a fine bonsai very quickly. 'Asahi-no-hikari' is very beautiful mutation of 'Eikan'.

I hope this helps.

Although the website is still up, the Camp Hill collection (about 3 hours from me) was abandoned by Auburn University this past spring. Actually here in Mobile at our botanical garden we have one of the largest azalea collections is the eastern USA, and probably the largest satsuki collection in the country. My hope is that we can start documenting what we have here, and do a better job of showing the variation of flowers on a single given variety - something that the Camp Hill site sorely lacks.

While it is a nice collection with good photos, it simply is too general to be used to identify satsuki based on a single picture. The way I see it you should be able to click on any of those names and see several pictures that give an honest representation of the variety. That's something we'll be working towards, I feel my "to do" list becoming a lot longer.

BTW, Mobile is known as "The Azalea City".
