Rhododendron 'Mardi Gras'

 

Mardi Gras Rhododendron is a dwarf thick leaved multi color blooming specimen that has sturdy dark colored leaves. The underside of each leaf looks like a Magnolia tree.

 

Be sure to use a well drained soil medium when planting Rhododendron as they prefer less watering than you might think. In clay soil we prefer planting with pine bark soil conditioner for Camellia, Rhododendron, Mountain Laurel, Azalea.
