RHODODENDRON 'Vulcan's Flame'
|
Hybridized/Introduced By: Ben Lancaster Parentage: ('griersonianum' X 'Mars')
Description: Seeking a more compact red, old time plant breeder Ben Lancaster used the same parents as 'Vulcan', but in reverse order. The plant he selected has fiery orange-red flowers held in an almost ball shaped truss. It's a show stopper! Leaves are matte green, slender and pointed. Wants some shade in our climate-not for the exposed garden.
