    Rhododendron 'Hortinno XXL'

    This Rhododendron is a new hybrid species which was obtained through more than 10 years of intensive breeding. The objective of the breeding process is to obtain a plant which will not only yield a beautiful flower, but which also has a fine appearance as a potted rhododendron, has an extended flowering period and moreover is readily grown. This newest variety is easily distinguished by a strikingly large raceme and an extended flowering period.

     

    These lush and large flowers will enhance horticultural value for any garden and plant lover. The Rhododendron also features compact growth, which makes this plant suited even for smaller gardens and for use as a potted rhododendron. Its lush inflorescence adorns even terraces, balconies or city gardens.

    This rhododendron has variegated (two-coloured) flowers. The unicoloured bud (still unopened flower) is of an intense carmine red. Flowers then open to display two colours: a carmine red edge with a nicely contrasting white flower heart.
