Rhododendron dauricum 'April Reign'

Rhododendron dauricum 'April Reign'

Rhododendron dauricum 'April Reign' is a compact, upright rhododendron producing elegant double flowers in soft light pink, each with a paler centre. Blooming throughout April, it brings a refined splash of colour to the garden early in the season.

The small, deep green semi-evergreen leaves provide useful structure through much of the year, while autumn brings attractive reddish-bronze tones. Its dense, rounded habit makes it especially suitable for smaller gardens and well-planned planting schemes.

Ideal for woodland gardens, mixed borders and foundation planting, 'April Reign' grows best in moist but well-drained acidic soil in a sheltered position. It performs well in full sun or partial shade and benefits from protection from harsh, drying winds.
