Purple Gem Rhododendron
Rhododendron x “Purple Gem’
A dense, slow-growing, dwarf shrub with azalea-like, evergreen foliage. Highly prized for its unusual purplish-blue flowers. Desirable for its small size. Some protection from winter wind is helpful. Like all rhododendrons a well-drained, acidic soil is a must.
