Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Blue-lavender flowers with wavy edges and pale yellow in the upper lobe form rounded trusses in a sea of very dark green foliage.
Rounded trusses of soft bluish-lavender grace this easy to grow hybrid. Attractive foliage covers this plant very well and it is a plant that out performs many other rhododendrons. It flowers heavily, and the flowers are delightful with their interesting, wavy edges. A real beauty! (red catawbiense seedling x 'Boule de Neige')
