T19. Rhododendron 'Mary Fleming'
Hardiness: USDA 5–7
Partial shade
Moist soil
2–4 feet tall
Hybridized by Guy Nearing, 'Mary Fleming' has won several Rhododendron of the Year awards from the American Rhododendron Society. The campanulate, wavy-edged flowers are a lovely creamy yellow with pink blushes and come two or three to the bud. A lepidote (small foliage) Rhododendron, this hybrid's leaves are 2 inches long and turn from dark green to warm bronze in winter. Hardy to –15°F, the compact 'Mary Fleming' is a perfect year-round plant.
