Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Flowers open a glossy red fading to rose while the insides fade to a light pink. New growth has a heavy layer of silver tomentum from its yakushimanum parent and as the season progresses the foliage turns a dark green.
A nice Hachmann rhododendron with flowers of shiny red fading to rose with a bit of darker red inside that fades to a lighter pink. White indumentum covers the leaves like regal attire, making the new growth shine like silver. As the season progresses, foliage changes to a deep, luscious green. This blooms later than most other yak hybrids so it will start when many other yaks are already finished flowering. ('Sammetglut' x degronianum ssp. yakushimanum 'Koichiro Wada')
