RHODODENDRON 'Pioneer Silvery Pink'
|
Hybridized/Introduced By: Hoogendorn Nurseries Parentage: ('Pioneer' seedling)
Description: This lepidote blooms about two weeks after its 'Pioneer' (mid-April) seed parent and thereby misses those occasional pesky late spring frosts. It is upright growing and fills out beautifully with larger leaves that suggest a minus (carolinianum) heritage. The flowers are a wonderful soft pink that cover the plant. You'll enjoy it not only as a featured plant during its blooming time, but also as a beautiful shrub year-round.
