Rhododendron Polyandrum

Rhododendron Polyandrum Details

Rhododendron Polyandrum features large and showy, cream-coloured flowers that are intensely fragrant. These exquisite blooms are produced in spring and literally transform not just the plant but also the garden. It is reasonably fast growing with an erect growth habit, bearing dark green leaves that complement the flowers nicely. This evergreen shrub typically grows to 2 m tall and the same wide, performing best when grown in full sun or partial shade on a well-drained, sheltered site. It is tolerant of frosts but should be protected from harsh frosts when young. When fertilising, avoid using lime as this will stunt or even kill plants. Rhododendron Polyandrum is a great choice for adding to a mixed planting, planting as a backdrop for smaller plants, or growing as a specimen.
