Rhododendron dauricum 'April Rose'
Rhododendron dauricum 'April Rose' is a compact, early-flowering rhododendron that brings rich colour to the garden at the very start of the season. From late March into April, clusters of three to four lightly fragrant, double flowers open in glowing shades of ruby-purple to purplish rose, creating a welcome burst of spring colour.
This semi-evergreen shrub forms a tidy, upright plant with a broad, well-branched habit, making it ideal for borders, woodland gardens and smaller spaces. Its small, elliptic deep green leaves take on attractive reddish-bronze tones in autumn, extending its seasonal interest. Best grown in moist but well-drained acidic soil, it performs well in sheltered south- or west-facing positions in full sun or partial shade.
