Description

Thompson & Morgan Rhododendron ‘Geisha Orange’ produces masses of flowers, and the compact spreading habit can make a fabulous low maintenance shrub for year round colour and structure. Azalea plants are perfect for bridging the gap between spring bulbs and summer perennials! A highly unique, dwarf Rhododendron with bright orange flowers, which will virtually cover the evergreen foliage throughout May, and often into June. Japanese Azaleas make a lovely feature in the rockery, or grown in a container on the patio. Grow Rhododendrons in moist, well-drained, acid soil that has been enriched with plenty of well-rotted organic matter. Many dwarf Rhododendrons can cope with a sunny position provided that the soil remains reliably moist. Choose a position in semi or dappled shade with shelter from cold, drying winds. Where soil conditions are alkaline, Rhododendron plants are best grown in patio containers, using a mix of ericaceous compost and a soil based compost such as John Innes No.3. Rhododendrons are surface rooting so it is important to avoid planting them too deeply.Ideal For: Patio, Cottage Gardens, Alpine Rockery, Low Maintenance Gardens, Exotic Gardens, Specimen Plants, Woodland Gardens Hardiness: Hardy Position In: Sun or Semi-Shade, Dappled Shade Height: Up to 60cm (23.6in) Spread: Up to 60cm (23.6in) Ease of Growing: Easy for All Ease of Aftercare: Easy for All
