RHODODENDRON PJM ELITE STAR
Grower Notes:
Rhododendron 'P.J.M. Elite Star' is commonly referred to as PJM Elite Star Rhododendron. It is a hardy, densely compact, evergreen shrub that features clusters of large, ruffled, soft lavender flowers with a bright purple-pink edge. This particular variety seems to glow in the shade! Its long lasting color blooms a couple weeks after other Rhododendrons have become spent. PJM hybrids are one of the hardiest Rhododendrons, thriving in climates such as the Upper Midwest and New England areas; and 'PJM Elite Star' is likely the most tolerant Rhody for cold conditions.
PJM Elite Star Rhododendrons thrive in full sun to partial shade in rich, fertile, acidic, evenly moist, well-drained soils. It will not tolerate standing water. It is ideal for shrub borders, hedges and foundation plantings.
