Wine and Roses

Lovely rose-pink flowers adorn this new unique rhododendron hybrid by Ken Cox of Glendoick Nursery in Scotland. The undersides of the leaves are a rich wine-red-purple color, contrasting nicely to the flowers. Grows best in a bit of shade and is hardy to zone 6. The plant has a mounding habit and will be 4 ft tall and wide in 10 years. If planted up on a mound, the undersides of the leaves will be more noticeable.  New and very collectible.
