hybrid rhododendron

Product Image
Rhododendron XXL is a dense, bushy, evergreen shrub that grows to about 1.8 meters in height. Dark green, leathery, elliptical leaves provide an attractive year-round backdrop. In late spring to early summer, it produces abundant clusters of very large, white, funnel-shaped flowers with a frilly pink edge, opening from pink buds. Suitable for borders, woodland gardens, or as a standout specimen plant.

Please note that the pot in the photograph is not supplied with the plant (which is sent out in a simple nursery alternative), but we have a wide and wonderful range on our website to choose from.

How to care for Rhododendron XXL ('Hort02') (PBR):
