Rhododendron ponticum Graziella

Compact elegant evergreen Rhododendron with dark green elliptic leaves that form a neat tidy crown. This plant reaches one metre height and one and a half metres in spread.

From Mid-May to June, flamboyant pale pink flowers appear, and cover the plant; these pink blooms against the dark foliage are guaranteed to light up any border.

Rhododendrons need a free draining rich acidic soil so if conditions are not favourable then you can still enjoy this plant by growing it in a container. They are happy in either sunshine or partial shade, prefers a south or west aspect out of cold winds and frost pockets.

Each spring mulch with a compost and later apply a foliar feed

Great specimen plant for a patio or dotted through a woodland border

Supplied in approx. 5 litre containers.
