Rhododendron 'Palestrina'



25th May 2008


One of the best of the white flowered evergreen azaleas. Taller growing and more upright than some of the rather low spreading forms that abound. It doesn't matter much with young plants, but as they mature the taller ones become charismatic, and the spreading ones start to look like domesticated volcanic oozing.
