Rhododendron Eucharitis | 5 Litre Pot

Two tone flowers and evergreen foliage. Position: partial shade Soil: moist, well-drained, humus-rich, acid soil or ericaceous compost Rate of growth: fast-growing Flowering period: May Hardiness: fully hardy Opening from rich pink buds in late spring, the flaring, trumpet-shaped flowers of this evergreen shrub are a soft blush colour with a warm russet throat, but then each petal has a deeper pink border that creates a two-tone effect. This is all offset by the backdrop of plush green foliage, which offers form and structure throughout the year. Garden care: Avoid planting too deeply. Apply a generous 5-7cm (2-3in) mulch of leaf mould around the base of the plant each spring.
