Description
White Rhododendron - By Dora Sofia Caputo
Image captured in late spring in my garden.
Rhododendrons have long been mainstays of late spring because of their spectacular clusters of showy blooms and large green leaves that often last through winter.
The flowers are usually tubular-, funnel-, or bell-shaped-and often fragrant.The leaves of the rhododendrun are generally large and leathery.
This shrub generally performs best if they are provided with moisture and shelter under trees. They prefer climates with adequate rainfall and moist summers. The rhododendron types are fussier, preferring environments where it is neither too hot nor too cold (Zones 5 to 8). They need a certain amount of chilling to develop strong flower buds.
