Rhododendron - williamsianum x fortunei ssp fortunei
Compact, low growing shrub with small bright-green rounded foliage. In mid-spring, bright-purple buds open to reveal lovely clusters of slightly-fragrant, pastel-pink flowers. Ideal when planted beneath large trees or as a spreading container plant.
Prefers dappled shade and requires well-draining, humus-rich, acidic soil.
