Rhododendron russatum 'Lauretta'
Rhododendron russatum 'Lauretta' is a compact, dwarf evergreen rhododendron valued for its dense, dark green foliage and intense spring colour. In mid to late spring, the plant is smothered in vivid violet-purple flowers, creating a striking burst of colour that stands out beautifully in smaller garden settings.
Its neat, low-growing habit makes ‘Lauretta’ ideal for containers, rockeries and the front of borders, where it provides year-round structure and seasonal interest without overwhelming surrounding plants. Best grown in acidic, moist but well-drained soil, this reliable variety is also attractive to bees, adding pollinator value alongside its ornamental appeal.
