The mountain laurel flowers are borne on one-inch pedicels and produced
in terminal clusters or corymbs four to six inches across. The ten stamens in each flower have anthers buried in individual pockets in the corolla completing the illusion of parasols with dainty ribs. The Mountain Laurel plant can grow to 30-feet in width and 10-feet in height. The Mountain laurel plant leaves yellow-green and alternate, with
each leaf shiny and entire. The leaves are 3-12 cm long and 1-4 cm wide.
