Lush purple flowers, each with a yellow-flamed throat and a smattering of greenish brown freckles, form in late spring and early summer on this easy to grow rhododendron. The rich green foliage is retained all year, so it's a wonderful shrub for adding structural interest to a partially shaded spot - and it can also be used for screening or informal hedging. - Garden care: Avoid planting too deeply. Apply a generous 5-7cm (2-3in) mulch of leaf mould around the base of the plant each spring.
- Humans/Pets: Harmful if eaten
