Marvellous full trusses of white, funnel-shaped flowers with yellow or greenish-brown markings in late spring and dark green leaves, retained all year. This lovely, old hybrid rhododendron is understandably popular, due to its tolerance of poor or near-neutral soil. Compact and robust, it's ideal for growing on a boundary, for use as a windbreak or screen.
