Well the name of this Rhododendron is a bit off putting but what it means is that the beautiful large blooms of reddish purple have an attractive central red zone. Nice compact grower and of course handsome green foliage. Plant in semi-shade in acid soil for best results. Evergreen.

Your Rhododendron will appreciate a nice layer of mulch around the surface roots in summer to keep them cool.
