Description

Discover the delicate beauty of the Rhododendron Hydon Dawn, a charming and compact evergreen shrub that brings elegance to any garden. This exceptional plant is known for its attractive frilly pale pink flowers, which gracefully fade to near-white as they mature, creating a stunning display throughout late spring.

Rhododendron Hydon Dawn features excellent foliage, with glossy dark green leaves that have a fawn indumentum on the underside. The new growth is silvery, adding a touch of shimmer to the plant. Its dense habit and compact size, reaching 80-100cm in 10 years and potentially growing up to 1.5m tall, make it an ideal choice for small gardens or as a feature plant in larger landscapes.

One of the standout qualities of Rhododendron Hydon Dawn is its resistance to thrips, a common pest that can affect many garden plants. This makes it a low-maintenance option for gardeners who want a beautiful and healthy plant without the worry of pest damage. To ensure optimal growth, Hydon Dawn prefers protection from the hot afternoon sun, making it perfect for partially shaded areas of your garden.

In late spring, Hydon Dawn produces rounded trusses of frilled, pale pink flowers that are about 5cm in width. These blooms create a captivating display that adds a touch of romance and elegance to your garden.

The compact and dense growth habit, combined with its stunning flowers and excellent foliage, makes Rhododendron Hydon Dawn a standout choice for any garden. Its unique characteristics and low-maintenance nature ensure that it will be a treasured addition to your landscape.
