Description
Rhododendron Saffron Queen is a charming variety featuring sulphur yellow flowers with dark spotting, blooming in October. Its bright and open growth habit adds a lively touch to any garden landscape. It’s best to hard prune this rhododendron after flowering, ensuring healthy growth and abundant blooms in the following season. Ideal for sheltered gardens, Rhododendron Saffron Queen reaches a height of 100 cm in 10 years and thrives in moist acidic soil conditions.
The flowers of this rhododendron are small, similar in size to alpine rhododendrons, about the size of your thumbnail. The bush has tiny leaves, just a little larger than your small fingernail. It’s crucial to protect Rhododendron Saffron Queen from the sun, especially in Canterbury, where yellow, apricot, and orange flowering rhododendrons benefit from shade during hot afternoons.
Adding Rhododendron Saffron Queen to your garden brings a burst of vibrant color and a lively growth habit. Its compact size and beautiful blooms make it a delightful addition to any garden setting.
