DistributionThe shrib is native to northwestern North America from Alaska through the Pacific Northwest to northwestern California and Wyoming.[1][2] It is a member of the flora in mountain forests. It grows in the understory of subalpine fir (Abies lasiocarpa), Pacific silver fir (A. amabilis), Coast redwood (Sequoia sempervirens),[2] western redcedar (Thuja plicata), western hemlock (Tsuga heterophylla), and other conifers.[3] The plant prefers cold, wet, densely vegetated habitats where it can grow in deep shade.[3] DescriptionRhododendron menziesii−Menziesia ferruginea is a mostly erect or spreading shrub often exceeding {{convert|3|m|ft}} in height, and reaching lower heights at higher elevations.[3]Its branches are coated in thin, scaly, shreddy bark and its twigs with fine glandular hairs. The alternately arranged deciduous leaves are oval in shape with pointed tips, reaching 4 to 6 centimeters long. The leaves are hairy, glandular, and sticky in texture, and have an unpleasant skunklike odor when crushed.[3] The inflorescence is a loose cluster of hanging bell- or cup-shaped flowers in shades of pink to orange to yellow-green. The flower has 4 to 5 petals which are mostly fused into a cylinder, and eight stamens inside. The bloom period is June and July.[1][2] The fruit is a valved capsule under a centimeter long which contains many seeds. See also
