Description
Rhododendron magnificumm One of the rarest of the big-leaf species in cultivation, closely related to protistum ( “giganteum “). The similar large leaves develop their thin indumentum at a much younger age than that species and the flowers also appear much sooner in its long life. The large flowers (early spring) range in color from rose to deep red-purple. These are grown from a hand-pollinated cross here in the RSBG. Rarely offered, almost all of the plants that I have seen in gardens labeled as this species are hybrids. (+15R17) RSBG $15.00-B
