Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Saucer-shaped flowers are pink with a cinnamon-colored blotch against deep green foliage. *Jim Barlup introduction with Parentage above, but after flow cytometry was found to have the ancestors 'Broughtonii', 'Pink Pearl', 'Gomer Waterer', 'Phyllis Korn', and 'Summer Peach'. Interesting that 'Golden Gala' is not among the above. Whatever the parentage, a rhododendron worth having in your garden!

Great pink color with a cinnamon fuchsia blotch give the saucer shaped flowers a "look at me" beauty on a very nice full plant with deep green foliage. Jim Burlap has another winner.
