Rhododendron impeditum Arctic Blue

Rhododendron impeditum 'Arctic Blue' is a gorgeous compact evergreen shrub, loved for both its aromatic foliage and its stunning display of blue-purple spring flowers. From mid to late spring, masses of blooms cover the plant, creating a beautiful burst of colour against the neat dark green leaves. Its compact habit makes it an excellent choice for smaller gardens, shrub borders, rockeries and woodland-style planting schemes, where it provides reliable year-round structure and seasonal beauty.

Perfect for adding long-lasting colour and texture, 'Arctic Blue' pairs beautifully with pieris and dwarf conifers in acidic garden settings. The evergreen foliage remains attractive year-round, while the flowers attract pollinators to the garden. Grow in moist, well-drained acidic soil in full sun or partial shade, ideally in a sheltered position protected from harsh winds. Mulch annually with ericaceous compost and water during dry spells to keep plants healthy and flourishing.

Supplied in approx. 2 litre containers.
