Dwarf Rhododendrons Collection
- A collection of three stunning dwarf Rhododendrons to give you vibrant blooms in spring and year-round, evergreen foliage interest.
- Contrasting with the gorgeous flowers, the evergreen leaves are glossy green and provide a good foil for other plants such as colourful perennials.
- Rhododendrons thrive in moist soil and partial shade and need acidic soil, so incorporate plenty of ericaceous compost to the planting hole or container.
- Ideal to provide masses of colour in early spring, plants can also be grown in a pot (remember to use ericaceous compost) and benefit from regular watering and feeding.
- Supplied as a collection of 3 plants in 2L pots, 1 each of Yellow, Purple and Pink
Product Description
A collection of three stunning Rhododendrons to give you vibrant blooms in spring and year-round, evergreen foliage interest.
Contrasting with the gorgeous flowers, the evergreen leaves are glossy green and provide a good foil for other plants such as colourful perennials - which will also give another layer of planting to your garden.
Growing to around 100cm (3ft 3in) high and wide, depending on variety, Rhododendrons are ideally suited to container growing, and this will also help to keep them compact and of course easy to maintain.
Perfect for providing masses of colour in early spring, Rhododendrons thrive in moist soil and partial shade, and need acidic soil, so incorporate plenty of ericaceous compost to the planting hole or container when planting.
Supplied as a collection of 3 plants in 2L pots, 1 each of Yellow, Purple and Pink.

Care Guide
- Rhododendrons can tolerate a more open site as long as they are sheltered from cold, drying winds and early morning sunlight. Mulch plants and water deeply and regularly during dryer periods from July onwards.
- Your Rhododendron should be planted slightly higher than it was in its pot into well-draining soil.
- Rhododendrons need an acidic soil with a pH of around 5.5 in order to thrive - soils with pH higher than 5.5 should be acidified before planting or you can grow them in a container with ericaceous compost.
- When watering, try to use rainwater as tap water tends to be too hard and more alkaline.
- Plants benefit from a yearly feed, and our Azalea, Rhododendron and Shrub feed it the ideal formulation.
