Haaga Rhododendron
Rhododendron x 'Haaga' (H-1)
SKU
1801
Large trusses of stunning pink flowers provide a beautiful contrast to the green foliage in spring, appearing reliably even on young plants. A very compact evergreen shrub that is perfect for small gardens in cool, damp climates. A terrific choice when a small accent plant with great presence is needed. Equally well-suited for a low hedge.

Water deeply and regularly during the first growing season to establish an extensive root system. Feed with an acid fertilizer after bloom.
