Description
Rhododendron edgeworthii Open-growing evergreen shrubs with smooth and shiny peeling bark. The distinctive glossy leaves are extremely attractive with a heavily puckered (bullate) texture above and a thick tawny indumentum below. The large and fragrant white flushed deep rose flowers appear in mid-spring. Requires sharp drainage and great in a container. This Award of Merit form, known as the "Bodnant form " is perhaps our hardiest clone (so far). Excellent on an old stump or log. (+5R26) RSBG#1965/383
