How to plant

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.

Care information

Rhododendrons are rewarding and easy to grow once their basics are right — most issues come down to watering, drainage, or planting depth. We recommend keeping roots cool and moist (but not waterlogged), planting shallow in well-drained acidic soil, mulching annually, feeding lightly in spring, and providing morning sun or dappled shade with shelter from harsh afternoon sun and wind.

For more detailed guidance on feeding, pruning, and common issues, start with our General Care Guide, which contains all the advice you need to keep your rhododendrons thriving.
