Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A "wow" color combination. Red-orange buds open yellow with a band of red-orange on the edges. A deep salmon coloration highlights the back of the petals. Leaves are a semi-glossy green.

Reddish orange buds open to a light yellow flower with a band of red-orange on the wavy edges. The outside of the flower is a very pretty, deep salmon color. The somewhat glossy, olive green leaves are a perfect backdrop for the lovely sunset colored flowers ('Nancy Evans' x 'Canadian Sunset')

This early bloomer is one of the best rhododendrons we've ever grown. Vivid reddish-orange in bud, its flowers open light yellow with a broad band of reddish-orange and mature pure yellow. They look absolutely stunning against the slightly glossy dark green foliage. Very compact.
