Rhododendron - aboreum (red blood form) x 'Ivery's Scarlet'
Compact evergreen shrub with upright growing habit and long pointy, dark-green foliage with silvery underside. Large trusses of bell-shaped, brilliant-red flowers emerge in early spring and make a truly colourful sight.
Prefers dappled shade and requires well-draining, humus-rich, acidic soil.
