Rhododendron Vulcan

Rhododendron Vulcan Details

Rhododendron Vulcan is a popular variety that features masses of bright red, trumpet shaped flowers through spring. It is reasonably fast growing with an erect growth habit, bearing dark green leaves that complement the flowers nicely. The foliage tends to develop bronze tones during winter. It typically grows to 2.5 m tall and the same wide, performing best when grown in full sun or partial shade on a well-drained, sheltered site. It is tolerant of frosts but should be protected from harsh frosts, especially when young. Rhododendron Vulcan is a great choice for adding to a mixed planting, planting as a backdrop for smaller plants, or growing as a specimen.
