RHODODENDRON 'Absolute Citron'
|
Hybridized/Introduced By: Ron Rabideau Parentage: ('Janet Blair' x 'Ice Cube') OP seedling X 'Goldkrone')
Description: This is Ron's first formal introduction. The bright yellow color, compact habit and heavy budding came from Hachmann's 'Goldkrone'. The hardiness, good foliage, bigger flowers with a blotch, and also compact habit came from the mother. The mother (seed) plant is well-tested and hardy to -25°F! Flowers open from deep yellow buds to bright medium yellow with red speckling on the upper lobe. This is so very new, Ron had it micro-propagated to make it quickly available for further testing in a variety of places. Without micropropagation, getting enough plants. Try 'Absolute Citron', we would appreciate hearing your feedback! (Available June)
