The larger rhododendrons make the backbone of many a fine garden. We concentrate on species, not hybrids, where possible grown from wild seed.
Rhododendron aff.decorum SDR5026 is a shrub or small tree with lovely smooth foliage, flushed red-orange as the new growth appears in early summer. It has large trusses of open, funnel shaped, strongly fragrant white flowers. This came from a little-explored area, and could possibly be another species related to decorum.
