Description
Rhododendron liliiflorum CGG#14066 Erect or mounding evergreen shrubs with striking glossy and peeling reddish-brown bark. The large trumpet-shaped white flowers (early summer) are waxy, long-lasting and fragrant. Although still fairly new to cultivation, this attractive late-season blooming species has great potential for relative hardiness and drought tolerance. Grown from seed collected in the wild in a newly explored region. Rarely offered species, one of the hardiest Maddenias. We have had this out in the garden for at least 15 years with no cold damage - I highly recommend this species. (0?\R2\5) RSBG#180sd2010
