{"product_id":"rhododendron-yaku-berg-rhododendron","title":"Rhododendron 'Yaku Berg' (Rhododendron)","description":"\u003cp\u003e'Yaku Berg' is a compact rhododendron with clear yakushimanum heritage, the Japanese island species that gave the rhododendron world some of its most refined, low-growing cultivars. Plants stay tight and mounded, rarely exceeding four feet, and the foliage has that classic yak-hybrid quality: new growth emerges silver-felted in spring, maturing to glossy dark green with pale indumentum (fuzzy coating) on the undersides. In bloom, the plant carries trusses of flowers that shift from deep rosy-pink buds to lighter pink or white as they fully open.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe compact scale makes 'Yaku Berg' one of the most versatile rhododendrons for smaller Pacific Northwest gardens. It works equally well in a large container on a shaded porch, as a low hedge along a woodland path, or tucked into a mixed shrub border where its year-round foliage texture earns its keep. The silver new-growth flush alone is worth planting for.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLike all yakushimanum-type rhododendrons, this one is notably cold-hardy and tolerant of cool, overcast summers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Langlois","offers":[{"title":"6gal","offer_id":44052396933208,"sku":"180041786","price":79.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/dragonflyfarmlanglois.com\/products\/rhododendron-yaku-berg-rhododendron","provider":"Dragonfly Farm \u0026 Nursery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
