DESCRIPTION
Rhododendron × ‘PJM’ is a broadleaf evergreen rhododendron that blooms in early spring with compact trusses of lavender to rosy-purple flowers. The small, dark green leaves are neatly shaped and often turn burgundy to mahogany in fall and winter, giving the plant year-round color and structure.

This classic hybrid originated at Weston Nurseries in Massachusetts in the late 1930s to early 1940s. It arose from breeding between Rhododendron carolinianum and Rhododendron dauricum var. sempervirens, resulting in a hardy garden rhododendron valued for dependable spring flowering and winter foliage color.
