Rhododendron 'Pink Spider' (PBR)
evergreen azalea
The flowers of this unusual evergreen azalea are made up of slender pink and white striped petals, which give the plants a distinctive, and somewhat tropical feel. Unlike many of the others, it remains quite compact, so this makes it perfect for front of border positions, as well as medium-sized pots placed on a lightly shaded patio.
How to care for Rhododendron Pink Spider (PBR):
Avoid planting too deeply. Apply a generous 5-7cm (2-3in) mulch of leaf mould around the base of the plant each spring.

This shrub is semi-evergreen, so it can lose some of its leaves in winter. In colder regions or more exposed gardens, it may lose them all, but then fresh new foliage appears again in spring.
