RHODODENDRON CAT ROS ELEGANS
Grower Notes:
Rhododendron catawbiense 'Roseum Elegans' is commonly referred to as Roseum Elegans Rhododendron. It is a Catawba hybrid, specially bred to withstand harsh climates. This vigorous, fast-growing broadleaf evergreen features large, glossy, elliptical, dark green leaves and large, rounded clusters of rosy lilac flowers in late spring that fade to pink during the growing season.
Roseum Elegans Rhododendron is quite cold resistant and thrives in partial shade in moist, acidic, humusy, well-drained soils. Morning sun with afternoon shade is ideal and it benefits with protection from harsh winter winds. It is perfect for borders, hedges or foundation plantings. Any pruning should be done right after flowering.
