Growing Guide
Plant in partial shade in fertile, humus-rich, acidic soil with good drainage. Rhododendrons dislike waterlogged conditions but benefit from soil that remains evenly moist, particularly while establishing and during dry spells.
Apply a mulch of leaf mould, composted bark or other ericaceous organic matter each spring to help retain moisture and maintain suitable soil conditions. Avoid lime-rich soils, as these shrubs perform best in acidic conditions.
Wildlife
The spring flowers provide nectar for bees and other pollinating insects.
