Rhododendron x Loderi ‘King George’
With cooler weather arriving, we have just received another interesting shipment of Rhododendrons !
The most interesting/fabulous/stupifying/incredible one in this load is the one pictured above, Rhododendron Loderi ‘King George’ .
That is my hand in the photo, to show scale . The flowers are enormous, and so is the plant. This is a big growing beauty,
so you must allow lots of space if you are one of the lucky 30 who get one this time.
R. Loderi ‘ King George’ is fabulously fragrant ! It is really strongly scented of something delicious, but I don’t know what!
We have a plant in the ground here at the nursery, and it hypnotizes everyone who walks by it in the spring.
Our plant is about 12′ across and 12′ high in 15 years. It will get twice that big in fifty years.
The foliage is also very large and evergreen, with a tinge of purple/blue to it.
If you think you deserve this plant, have $49.95 (and have lots of room), get here fast.
