A collection of three stunning Rhododendrons to give you vibrant blooms in spring and year-round, evergreen foliage interest. Contrasting with the gorgeous flowers, the evergreen leaves are glossy green and provide a good foil for other plants such as colourful perennials - which will also give another layer of planting to your garden. Growing to around 100cm (3ft 3in) high and wide, depending on variety, Rhododendrons are ideally suited to container growing, and this will also help to keep them compact and of course easy to maintain. Perfect for providing masses of colour in early spring, Rhododendrons thrive in moist soil and partial shade, and need acidic soil, so incorporate plenty of ericaceous compost to the planting hole or container when planting. Supplied as a collection of 3 plants in 2L pots, 1 each of Yellow, Purple and Pink.
