R. 'Orange Obsession' web special

R. 'Orange Obsession' web specialA new Singing Tree Gardens rhododendron hybrid that has R. 'Naselle' as a parent. The flowers are a rich shade of orange sitting above excellent foliage. The plant is robust, so will be 6 feet tall in 10 years. The flower trusses are a bit loose, but the strong color makes this one worthwhile. Probably only hardy to zone 8.

Great for windbreaks or decorative screens

Named after a famous political figure from Washington state

Recipient of the prestigious Award of Garden Merit by the Royal Horticultural Society for its outstanding qualities

in mid winter I saw it out there a glorious bright yellow-gold color contrasting nicely to the blue foliage of Blue Star Juniper nearby

and is a 1981 cross of R
