Rhodendron for Gralew

that is so pretty, I know exactly what you mean, think it has something to do with the depth of colour in the buds, I have one that I feel exactly the same about. After saying that it is very very pretty. Love it. :O)

Thanks Olive , itcertainly makes a statement;0)

Thanks H.B ;0)

I like all Rhodies when they are half in bud and half in flower...have to agree with you Carole. :) Mum is right, it's the depth of colour you get in the buds and the contrast of bud and flower colour.

;0))

Beautiful. Love the peachy colour.

That's a beauty Carole , fluffy and girly :o))

Thanks Feverfew it is a nice colour.;0)

Oooo that's so pretty! Do these need acidic soil?

Hi Sk pleased you like it, Acid soil is esential as the leaves turn yellow in Alkaline;0)

Very beautiful and such a pretty mix of delicate colours.

Thankyou Wid Rose it is really in full bloom now , I am going to give it a trim once it finishes flowering, to keep it under control [its in the front garden and as much as I love it I dont want it taking over ;0))

It was stunnning they just take your breath away. Trouble is when the flowers go I always think they look a bit tatty.

All gone now L.OM. they rimmed all the flower heads off and its now sending up more leaves;0)
