Rhododendron
Rhododendron is a hardy plant with profuse flowering. The literal translation is ‘rose tree’, perhaps due to its beautiful, brightly coloured flowers and full form - some shrubs can grow quite large. Bestselect's variety is a unique mix of purple-flowering young shoots, dark brown leaves and dark pink flowers.
