Glossy red flowers on red stems reside on dark green leaves with heavy veining.

Vibrant red blooms.

By: Thompson's Nursery

Vibrant red blooms on red stems and dark green leaves with deeper veining make this a very nice plant to own. With a parent like the famous Exbury rhododendron, 'Kilimanjaro', it's got to be exceptional, and it is, with those glossy red flowers! ('Elizabeth' x 'Kilimanjaro')
