RHODODENDRON 'Babylon' |
||||
|
Hybridized/Introduced By: Reuthe Parentage: (calophytum X praevernum) Description: A tall mounded plant having magnificent trusses of 4-5 inch white flowers with a striking red blotched throat. The exceptional long leaves and red stems make this a desirable plant even when not in bloom. Although a hybrid, 'Babylon' retains the species look of calophytum. If you ever wanted to grow the early blooming calophytum but could not because of its borderline hardiness, this is a good surrogate. | ||||
