Vaccinium dunalianum is an evergreen shrub, climber or small tree from the mountain forests of south and southeast Asia, grown mainly for its bell-shaped flowers and dark purple berries. It is a cool-climate woodland plant, so it suits a sheltered, humus-rich, moist spot rather than hot, dry conditions.
Vaccinium dunalianum is a species of flowering plant in the family Ericaceae. It is a shrub, climbing plant, or tree with green, purple, or pink flowers, and dark purple fruits. The species is native to Asia.
Vaccinium dunalianum was described in 1847, and is listed as of Least Concern by the IUCN.
Vaccinium dunalianum is native to the temperate biome of India (Assam), China (south-central and southeast), Myanmar, Nepal, Taiwan, Tibet, and Vietnam. It grows in forests and forest edges, thickets, on slopes, and on mountains, at elevations of 1,400–2,700 metres (4,600–8,900 ft).
