Product description

An evergreen shrub from the Yakushimanum group with a flat-spherical, compact habit, reaching approx. 70 cm in height and 120 cm in width at the age of 10. Thick, oblong, dark green leaves. Large flowers (diameter approx. 7 cm), purple with a white bottom, with a delicate speckled pattern on the upper petal, with strongly wavy petal edges. They are collected in 9-15 pieces in spherical inflorescences on the top of shoots. It blooms reliably and profusely in May and June.

Rhododendrons should be planted in permeable, acidic soil (pH 4.5 - 6.0), slightly moist (you can also purchase a special substrate for rhododendrons in most garden stores). It is best to choose semi-shaded positions, sheltered from the wind.

Due to the shallow root system, even old rhododendron specimens can be transplanted to another place if necessary. We can also successfully grow them in pots. Pruning should be limited to spring cutting out dead or diseased shoots and removing faded inflorescences.
