A stunning, elepidote, dwarf growing Rhododendron. Dark red almost black new foliage on both sides of the leaves makes this standout like no other! Leaves do eventually fade to dark green. Adding to the appeal is its waxy, deep red flowers. Blooms mid to late season. Grows 2′-3′ high and wide in a 10 year period.
