Notes

'Sweet Reward Coral' rhododendron (Rhododendron 'Sweet Reward Coral') is an evergreen shrub for borders, specimen planting, shade gardens, and woodland settings. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes part sun to full shade and average to moist, sandy or loamy soil. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. It blooms from early to late spring, and hummingbirds, bees, and birds visit the flowers.

Pairs well with Western sword fern, White Feather hosta, and Red trillium.
