Rhododendron Scintillation

Currently out of stock.

 

Rhododendron Scintillation is one of the most popular Rhododendrons out there. That’s why it has been awarded the Award of Garden Merit (AGM) by the RHS. 

 

This is a most attractive rhododendron hybrid, an evergreen, compact flowering shrub with narrow dark green, glossy oblong-shaped foliage. A free flowering Rhododendron, Scintillation will give the garden a beautiful floral display in mid spring, with its pink buds at the end of the branches, that open into large, purple pink flowers. The trumpet shaped flowers and have a gold blotch in the centre.

 

Try planting Rhododendron Scintillation with other evergreen flowering shrubs in a border. Rhododendrons can also be used as a floral hedge. They tend to look good in pots and containers for terraces and balconies.

Rhododendron Scintillation is particularly hardy and is both cold and heat tolerant. It prefers light shade, particularly to protect the foliage, which can suffer from sunburn. 

 

To ensure your Rhododendron thrives, always apply a good mulch and mix to keep soil nice and moist. Feed your plant with a good ericaceous fertiliser, particular during flowering. 

 

Rhododendron Scintillation can reach a maximum height and spread of 1.5 to 1.8 metres within 10 years.
