Nova Zembla Rhododendron

The Red Rhododendron, Nova Zembla, is a classic variety known for the brilliance of is flowers, its hardiness and its ability to grow well in sunny locations. One of a group of Rhododendrons described as ‘iron-clad’, this bush certainly deserves that name. This extremely hardy plant will grow in most places and will bring you with a fantastic show of large red blooms whose inner markings resemble leopard skin, with darks spots covering the upper inner petals. Easy to grow and maintain, this evergreen shrub will grow to around eight feet high and so allows planting where larger examples just could not be considered.

• Huge spectacular red flower clusters
• Easy to grow in part-sun or shade
• Top choice for your first rhododendron
• Hardy to minus 25 degrees
• Moderate size suitable for any garden

If you are new to growing Rhododendrons, this should be your first choice, since it is hardy in part-sun or shade, cold-tolerant and undemanding – a real beauty for easy growing and trouble-free gardening.
