The Rhododendron Species Botanical Garden (RSBG) invites you to our next webinar on October 29, 2025, at 7 p.m. PST with RSBG Curator Will Clausen.   

About Will Clausen

Rhododendron subsection Ledum: An overview of the fascinating and confusing Labrador Teas

The Labrador Teas are a widespread but relatively unknown group of plants that offer a lot of surprises and more than their fair share of mysteries. Although they are counted among rhododendrons, Labrador teas are oddballs that don’t quite fit the standard idea of a rhododendron.

Join Will Clausen for a deep dive into the natural history and complex taxonomy of these fascinating plants. He’ll explore their potential horticultural applications, surprising uses by humans, and give detailed descriptions of the various species, including where to find them in the wild and the noteworthy plants they grow alongside.

 

Price: $15 for RSBG members | $25 for non-members + tax

Registration closes on October 27, 2025, at 11:59 p.m. PST
