The leathery leaves can grow to four inches long. The flowers are produced in clusters at the stem tips. This native rhododendron grows better in Piedmont gardens than most hybrid evergreen rhododendrons. It requires good drainage, especially in clay soils. Mulch helps keep the shallow roots moist and cool. Its evergreen foliage provides winter protection for birds and other animals. Hummingbirds, butterflies, bees and other insect pollinators visit the flowers. Deer may browse this plant in winter when other food is scarce. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"SCNPS Upstate","offers":[{"title":"6\"","offer_id":52790231892255,"sku":"C-64","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0754\/9501\/4687\/files\/rwl1227_a2.jpg?v=1789823903","url":"https:\/\/shopupstate.scnps.org\/products\/rhododendron-minus-carolina-rhododendron","provider":"SCNPS - Upstate Chapter","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
