Rhododendron poukhanense
$149.99
Unit price perBack for the 2026 season.
This semi-evergreen azalea is an ideal choice for the mixed border as well as front foundation plantings due to its compact, mounded habit and pretty pale lilac-rose flowers in early spring. The foliage is bright green, turning shade of orange and red in the fall. Will shed lower lower leaves in winter. To ensure success this plant must have loose, acidic soil that drains well, and will fail in wet, heavy, poorly draining clay. Amend heavy clay soil with shredded pine bark and add soil sulfur to lower the pH. Flower bud hardy to -25F.
