Rhododendron obtusum 'Sandy Fire'®
Rhododendron obtusum 'Sandy Fire'® is a striking evergreen Japanese azalea, valued for its intense spring colour and neat, year-round structure. Glossy green foliage forms a compact, dome-shaped shrub that provides interest even when not in flower.
In late spring, the plant bursts into life with vivid clusters of bright orange blooms, creating a fiery display that brings warmth and impact to borders, containers and woodland-style planting schemes. Hardy and reliable, it thrives in acidic, moist but well-drained soil and light shade, while its flowers are highly attractive to bees.
