Sparkling Stars

New from Frank Fujioka of Whidbey Island, Washington State, this sister seedling of R. 'Starbright Champagne' is one of the most striking flowers we have seen. The pointy white flowers with a red throat will catch your gaze immediately! "Is this a rhododendron?" will be your first thought. We think this plant is a big winner, and it has won the "People's Choice" award at the Eureka, California Rhododendron Show. Plant in a shady area or against a dark background for a dramatic effect.
