R. arboreum 'Leonardslee'

R. arboreum 'Leonardslee'


From the Leonardslee Estate in Great Britain, this form of R. arboreum is quite stunning. The flowers are a bright white with a florescent pink picotee edge to each flower. The plant  grows large with dark-green leaves the have a shiny silver indumentum on the back sides of the leaves. They hang quite steeply on the plant, and this is quite normal, but until you get used to it, it may alarm some people. Rare.

Rare Variety – This variety is difficult to find anywhere due to these reasons
·       Hard to propagate – many cultivars do not root easily from cuttings, but at a reduced rate thus making the plant rare.
·       Hard to find – these cultivars are hard to find in the first place, probably because they are hard to root from cuttings
