The Fortune Rhododendron Shrub, native to China and introduced in the U.S. in the mid-1800s, is both heat and cold tolerant compared to most rhododendrons. These evergreen shrubs feature large, thick, dark green shiny leaves and are highly ornamental. In spring, the bushes are adorned with clusters of large 3-4 inch flowers that are fragrant and display multi-colored pastel buds and blooms, offering an extended bloom period.

Didn’t get this to germinate however, I believe it was on me as most items ordered I had no issues with. Sad but I’ll try again.
