Overview

The PJM Rhododendron is a compact, evergreen shrub, reaching up to 5 feet in height and width. Its small, leathery leaves take on a purple hue in winter. Spring brings vibrant lavender-pink blooms that contrast beautifully with the dark green foliage. Ideal for small gardens, this cold-hardy variety thrives in zones 4-8 and prefers well-drained, acidic soil. Exceptionally disease resistant, it's a low-maintenance choice for year-round interest.
