Properties and uses:
Rhododendron Yakushimanum are semi-dwarf evergreen shrubs to plant in flowerbeds among other plants for acid soils, in open ground or containers. They offer beautiful, colourful blooming in spring, bringing light to the garden.
Rhododendron ‘Percy Wiseman’ is exceptionally floriferous and attracts pollinator insects. The beautiful colour-changing flowers are salmon pink to creamy white, with shades of pink, orange and yellow. It is one of the most beautiful plants for acid soils thanks to its generous flowering and upright bearing. Ideal for small gardens and containers, terraces, and balconies.
