Rhododendron arboreum Sm., the national flower of Nepal, is an ecologically and culturally significant species of the Ericaceae family distributed across the Himalayan region. This review synthesizes current knowledge about its botanical characteristics, phytochemistry, pharmacological properties, and conservation status. The species contains various bioactive compounds including flavonoids, saponins, and triterpenoids, exhibiting anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective, antidiabetic, antidiarrheal, and antioxidant properties. Beyond its medicinal value, R. arboreum has important applications in the food industry and plays a crucial role in Himalayan ecosystem stability. However, the species faces significant threats from habitat destruction, overexploitation, and climate change, highlighting the urgent need for conservation measures.
