Rhododendron ‘Sir Robert’ features deep green foliage that beautifully complements its apple-blossom pink flowers. This charming evergreen Azalea has a neat, compact form and blooms abundantly. Perfect for planting in shady borders, woodland gardens, or rockeries with acid soils, it blends effortlessly into any planting design. This resilient shrub also makes an excellent choice for a patio container, providing year-round colour and structure to your landscape. Height: 60cm (24″). Spread: 90cm (36″). Grow Rhododendrons in moist, well drained, acid soil that has been enriched with plenty of well rotted organic matter. Choose a position in semi or dappled shade with shelter from cold drying winds. Many dwarf Rhododendrons can cope with a sunny position provided that the soil remains reliably moist. Where soil conditions are alkaline, Rhododendron plants are best grown in patio containers, using a mix of ericaceous compost and a soil based compost such as John Innes No. 3. Rhododendrons are surface rooting so it is important to avoid planting them too deeply.
