Rhododendron Ponticum Variegatum - Compact Evergreen Shrub

Rhododendron ponticum 'Variegatum' is a beautiful evergreen shrub that adds year-round colour and interest to the garden with its bold, variegated leaves. Each large leaf is edged with creamy-yellow margins, creating a luminous effect even in shady areas. In late spring to early summer, this impressive rhododendron bursts into bloom with generous trusses of classic lilac-purple flowers, providing a spectacular contrast against the dramatic foliage.

This variety thrives in moist, acidic, well-drained soil and prefers a sheltered spot in partial shade, making it ideal for woodland gardens, shaded borders, or as an architectural specimen. Its robust, bushy growth will also suit urban or larger gardens where the reliable evergreen structure is needed. Minimal maintenance is required, just remove spent flowers after blooming and give a light trim if needed to shape.

Supplied as strong bushy flowering sized plants growing in approx 5 litre containers.
