Blue


Blue Nose rhododendron is not seen much in commerce, but certainly deserves to be well known. It is rock hardy even here in Iowa, and covered every spring by luminescent violet flowers. I have white daffodils planted in front of it, for a nice contrast

  1. Sounds like a really nice planting! I have an azelia from the "Northern Lights" series that's hardy here in zone 4, but not exactly thriving. At least I can enjoy yours!

  2. Lisa... some of the "Lights" are kind of wimpy here, too.
