{"product_id":"rhododendron-catawbiense-album-rhododendron-1","title":"Rhododendron 'Catawbiense Album' (Rhododendron)","description":"\u003cp\u003eCatawbiense Album is one of the classic cold-hardy rhododendrons, bred in England in the late 1800s specifically for durability. It opens pale lavender-budded flowers that mature to pure white with a soft greenish-yellow blotch in the throat, producing full rounded trusses in late spring. The contrast between the bud color and the open flower is subtle but lovely. As a large-scale shrub reaching 5 to 6 feet in both height and spread, it earns its space as a long-lived foundation or border anchor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is an iron-clad variety in the truest sense: cold-hardy well below zero and tolerant of more sun than many rhododendrons, while still performing beautifully in the dappled shade typical of Oregon coastal gardens. It prefers moist, acidic, well-drained soil with organic matter worked in, and benefits from a layer of mulch to keep the shallow root system cool and protected.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCatawbiense Album pairs naturally with the deep greens of conifers and the bold foliage of ferns, and it creates an excellent backdrop for smaller azaleas or the colorful new growth of a Forest Flame Pieris. Once established, it is a remarkably self-sufficient shrub that rewards patience with decades of reliable bloom.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Langlois","offers":[{"title":"2gal","offer_id":44051711557720,"sku":"180041775","price":40.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6gal","offer_id":44051711623256,"sku":"18030752","price":78.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/dragonflyfarmlanglois.com\/products\/rhododendron-catawbiense-album-rhododendron-1","provider":"Dragonfly Farm \u0026 Nursery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
