Nursery contributed plant descriptions

One of the toughest rhododendrons. Will do well in full sun. This plant will have purple foliage in winter. In spring, the leaves turn deep green. The flowers are bright pinkish lavender. Very hardy and an easy grower.

By: Gossler Farms

Bright lavender-pink flowers create a much-needed show so early in the season. Small, shiny leaves turn a rich mahogany-color in winter. Has one of the broadest zone ranges of any rhododendron with its "ironclad" hardiness.
