Rhododendron ‘Pink Trumpets’ is an attractive evergreen rhododendron known for its large, pale shell pink, trumpet shaped flowers that appear in mid spring, creating an abundant and eye catching display in garden borders or sheltered beds. Its flowers are noted for their wonderful fragrance, adding both visual and sensory appeal to the landscape.
This cultivar forms a medium sized, rounded shrub reaching approximately 1.5 metres in height with dense evergreen foliage that provides structure and colour year round. Its bold flowers and classic shrub form make it a great choice for mixed borders, specimen planting, or woodland garden settings where scented spring blooms are welcomed.

When you purchase a rhododendron, you will receive a well-established four-year-old plant grown in a 6L pot, with a strong root system and often developing flower buds, ready to settle in and thrive in your garden.

To help you plan for the plant’s eventual scale, the mature heights listed in the Product Information are estimated 10-year sizes from the time of planting. For more detail, please refer to our Size Guide in the FAQs.

All our rhododendrons are grown in pots, so you can plant them anytime, though autumn is ideal for encouraging strong root growth. Find the right spot based on your chosen rhodo, improve the soil generously with organic matter, gently tease out the roots, and plant shallow at or just below the original soil level. Finally, mulch well and water thoroughly to help your plant establish.

Rhododendrons are rewarding and easy to grow once their basics are right — most issues come down to watering, drainage, or planting depth. Follow our planting guide for a great start, prune as needed, mulch annually to keep roots cool, and feed lightly in spring for a spectacular bloom later in the year.

Keep an eye out for common issues like powdery mildew or thrip, and address them promptly. We have plenty of information on caring for your rhododendron, and if you can’t find what you need, we’re always happy to talk all things Rhodos. Find a full overview in our General Care Guide (link below).
