Rhodo. 'Roseum Elegans'

from $88.00
  • Rhododendron ‘Roseum Elegans’ is a classic, cold-hardy evergreen rhododendron (an “ironclad” hybrid) valued for its big late-spring trusses of soft rose-lilac flowers and reliable, rounded form—great for borders, foundations, and woodland edges.

    Key features

    • Bloom: Large, dome-shaped clusters (trusses) of rosy lavender-pink flowers with a subtle darker blotch; late spring.

    • Foliage & habit: Broadleaf evergreen with leathery, deep-green leaves; dense, rounded shrub.

    • Size: Typically 6–8 ft tall and wide (older plants to 10–12 ft).

    • Hardiness: Very hardy (USDA Zones 4–8); buds withstand cold better than many rhodos.

    • Light: Best in partial shade—morning sun, afternoon shade; protect from harsh winter wind.

    • Soil: Acidic, humus-rich, evenly moist, and well-drained; mulch to keep roots cool.

    • Uses: Specimen, screen, or mass planting; classic estate and foundation shrub.

    • Toxicity: All parts toxic if ingested (grayanotoxins); keep away from pets/children.

    Care tip: Avoid planting too deep; keep the root flare at or slightly above soil level and water during summer dry spells.

  • All plants come with a regular black nursery pot
