Description
Rhododendron nuttallii One of the finest of all species with probably the largest flowers in the genus. Beautiful, large, bullate leaves and smooth, peeling, purple-black bark. Bright fuchsia-pink new growth with silver scales and huge, fragrant, six-inch long flowers. Grown from seed produced by a hand-pollination of the sensational selection ‘John Paul Evans’. Requires excellent drainage, makes a fine container specimen and will flower at a much younger age when grown in this fashion. A real treasure and well worth the effort in colder regions where it performs admirably in a container. (+20R27) RSBG#400sd1999
