The Rhododendron Garden Nursery Rhododendrons

Rhododendrons We Carry

Flowers peeking through fenceOur plants are grown onsite in natural conditions and are the best quality plants available. From the very start it is intended they become acclimated to our weather. They are beautiful, healthy, and tough. We give them all the best to help them achieve that goal. A special rhody soil mix is used to promote strong root growth. A top-of-the-line fertilizer is applied every spring. When you take a plant home, it is ready to face the world.

While most of our plants are selected for flower attractiveness and blossom color variety, a few savvy buyers keep an eye out for distinctive foliage as well.

With rhododendrons being the backbone of a Northwest garden, variety in size, growth habit, and leaf pattern becomes desirable. With over 150 diverse varieties, we provide more than enough choices.

The varieties we carry are shown in the table below. Be sure to take a look at our rhody flower gallery using photos taken here at the nursery.

For those with specific needs perhaps the following lists will help you out.
