Kalmia latifolia 'Tinkerbelle'

I see a lot more flower buds this year and like how the plant looks surrounded by sandstone

The stones will hold the heat if sun is out. It looks well.

Lovely colour leaves does this flower and I assume by the name it stays small.

Yes it flowers shortly after rhododendrons, usually early June here. The flowers are pink, long-lasting and beautiful. Most of my mountain laurels need a lot of attention but this one has been easy to care for so far. It is a dwarf form, it might reach 3 feet tall.

Yes I find the dwarf Rhododendrons I have flower longer and better, thank you for the information on the Laurel.
