Bright purple-blue flower clusters light up the landscape each season combined with glossy green foliage to form an excellent small compact plant.

By: Bloom River Gardens

There are many small "blue" rhododendrons, sometimes so many it is hard to separate them all. However, this one will stand out for its bright purple-blue flowers which seem to glow as if by some mystical power. The foliage is glossy green and makes a superb compact plant. (russatum x 'Blue Tit')
