  Comments:
聖紫花 is a well known flowering plant on the islands of the region where I live. (Fof the "aka" 学名 see references 3 and 4)

As an aside: in the Ryukyu Islands this plant has varieties known as
八重山聖紫花 (Rhododendron latoucheae var. latoucheae)
https://powo.science.kew.org/taxon/urn:lsid:ipni.org:names:77224464-1
and 
奄美聖紫花 (Rhododendron latoucheae var. amamiense)
