Rhododendron
Rhododendron x PJM is a compact, evergreen shrub known for its dense, rounded growth habit, typically reaching 3 to 5 feet in height and spreading wider over time. It thrives in partial sun to partial shade, preferring 4-6 hours of light daily, and does best in moist, acidic, well-drained soils that are never completely dry. Rhododendron x PJM should be watered regularly to keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy, as it does not tolerate wet feet or drought. This variety is valued for its hardiness and vibrant spring blooms, making it a reliable choice for gardens with the right soil and light conditions.
