Rhododendron Dandy Man Color Wheel | Dandy Man Color Wheel Rhododendron

$0.00

DESCRIPTION
Rhododendron Dandy Man Color Wheel is an evergreen shrub with a rounded habit and leathery green foliage. In late spring, deep red buds open into ruffled pink flowers with deeper pink undersides. As the blossoms age, petals turn soft blush and then white, so red buds, pink blooms, and white flowers can appear together, creating a long display of changing color.

Bred at North Carolina State University and introduced by Proven Winners as Rhododendron x ‘NCRX1’, Dandy Man Color Wheel pairs abundant bloom with durable performance. It offers heat and disease resistance, keeps its foliage in winter, and suits use as a specimen, flowering hedge, or part of mixed borders where evolving color is welcome.
