Purpureum Elegans Rhododendron
Rhododendron catawbiense 'Purpureum Elegans'
$78.00 / 3 GAL
Description
Rich purple blooms arrive in generous trusses each late spring. This 1850s selection has survived nearly two centuries because nothing phases it—not ice, drought, or unpredictable mountain weather. The vigorous 6-foot habit tolerates more sun than most purple varieties.
