Planting and Care Guide

Planting Tips

Plant in moist, well-drained, acidic soil (pH 4.5–6.0) with generous organic matter. Space 4–5 feet apart. Water thoroughly after planting and mulch 2–3 inches deep, keeping mulch away from the crown.

Care Tips

Water deeply and consistently throughout the growing season. Rhododendrons have shallow roots and need reliable moisture. Prune lightly immediately after flowering- rhododendrons bloom on old wood and pruning at other times removes next year's flower buds. Fertilize in spring with an acid azalea/rhododendron fertilizer. Monitor for lace bugs in summer. The vivid, deep purple-violet flower trusses are bold and abundantly produced in spring- an excellent, well-performing landscape rhododendron with good cold hardiness.
