The PJM Elite Rhododendron is a welcome sight when it starts to bloom around late April. Large clusters of frilly, lavender flowers with slight hints of plum are beautiful and make for an excellent specimen of Rhododendron blooms. This dense plant is a prolific bloomer and will put on a stunning floral display. The flowers are offset by glossy, dark green, elliptical foliage.
Plant this shrub along a fence or foundation or create a natural border. Include in a bed or mass planting for a bright burst of springtime color. The foliage will stay in place year-round as a broadleaf perennial, so this shrub will always provide color and visual interest. This hardy Rhododendron is a perennial in USDA zones 4 through 8.
