Rhododendron ‘Yak Superman’ is a charming compact rhododendron featuring soft pink flowers that appear in late October, forming neat and attractive trusses. Its new foliage displays silvery-white tomentum that gradually matures to a rich dark green, adding year-round texture and colour contrast in the garden.
This variety maintains a compact habit, growing to approximately 1 metre, making it ideal for small gardens, mixed shrub borders, or container plantings.

Behind the scenes, potting up never really seems to stop here at the nursery. Right now, all the cuttings are graduating from their jiffy pots into their 2-litre pots. It really does feel a bit like a ceremony — the babies are off to school.

We are currently using PostHaste as our preferred domestic courier. Freight per box works out most economically when purchasing either two or four plants, as this fills the boxes we create efficiently. The freight cost for one plant is generally the same as for two, and we can fit up to four 6-litre pots into one banana box, making shipping cost-effective.

Please note, courier freight is also governed by plant height, as PostHaste cannot accept anything over 1.2 metres. Occasionally this may mean selecting a slightly shorter plant for shipping, but rest assured — we always aim to send you the largest, healthiest plants possible. If there’s a significant size difference, we’ll always give you a call to discuss your options.
