Rhododendron 'Super Nova'
view larger image

RHODODENDRON 'Super Nova'
Please Choose:  

Hybridized/Introduced By: Briggs Nursery

Parentage: ('Nova Zembla' polypoloid)

Description: Briggs Nursery doubled the chromosomes of the beloved red 'Nova Zembla' in a test tube and—Voila!!—Another "Franken Plant." Whereas 'Nova Zembla' grows in an upright and open form (as it ages); its "Franken Child" is a handsome, compact, burly, thick grower. The flowers are about the same as 'Nova Zembla'—a tight conical red truss but the habit is very different. Tight and steroidal are words which come to mind.
