. R. GLOBIDGERUM - Has amazing rusty hairs on dark<br />
green leaves. This rhododendron is grown primarily for its<br />
handsome foliage. The flowers are soft pink to white in April<br />

very dark green and have soft tan indumentum. Flowers are<br />
white with pink buds. 2 gal. $ 30.00<br />
R. MACABEANUM CECIL SMITH form selfed - One<br />
of the beautiful large leafed rhododendron species. The 8-12"<br />
rounded leaves are deep green with large veins. The<br />
indumentum is white silver so will make quite an impression<br />
when the plant gets large. Our 15 year old plant is 8-10' tall<br />
and 10' wide. The trusses are rich clear yellow bells. It takes<br />
10+ years for R. macabeanum to bloom, so the foliage is all<br />
important. R. macabeanum is hardy to about 5-10° F., but<br />
needs protection from wind. We have only a few available, so<br />
one per customer, first come, first served.<br />

R. pachysanthum is similar to R. pseudochrysanthum but has a<br />
lot more indumentum and tomentum. The indumentum is a<br />
more tan color rather than silver like R. pseudochysanthum.<br />
The soft pink flowers are a bonus each spring.<br />

collector's item in rhododendron collections. The leaves are<br />
