New leaves on Rhododendron Elizabeth Red

unusual reddish leaves.

Thank you Bathgate, sometimes its worth to grow plants just for the leaves.

Wow! That's gorgeous! I love leaves that open reddish or pink. The mango trees here are flushing growth. I know you know what they look like when they flush growth, burgundy, red, pink.

Thanks Delonix1. We had several mango trees on the Mexican property. Same story. Emerging beautiful red leaves fading to green later.

Yes, the leaves do fade to dark green later. Some avocado varieties do the same thing. They almost look like mango trees; however, the leaves on avocado trees are larger.
