Product Description
Huge Lavender Blooms Delight Each and Every Spring- Easy to grow!
Rhododendrons are famous for their huge clusters of vibrant lavender flowers (clusters of 8-10 flowers each), but most people don't know how easy they are to grow -
- Drought tolerant - no watering worries during summer dry spells.
- Adaptable to a variety of soil conditions and climates,
- Excellent in gardens, by walkways, foundation plantings, or along your property border.
You are sure to find a place for this plant. The National Arbor Day Foundation calls it 'One of America's most beautiful plants.'
Your new Rhododendrons will complement any landscape design with its explosion of purple flowers against a backdrop of glossy, leather-like foliage. Consider using this versatile shrub as a hedgerow plant...
its round growth habit makes it ideal to plant in groupings with the promise of stunning color in the spring months. A customer favorite, we suggest you add them to your collection quickly... because these shrubs will sell out.
Our Lavender Rhododendrons are shipped in large 1 and 3 gallon containers, ensuring you receive an established and mature sized plant. Many of our competitors only offer smaller sizes, which will take years to reach an appealing height.

Lavendar Rhodies
delivered as promised and in great health. Already blooming and beautiful
Not In My Area
You don't have to display this to the public. But since you asked.... All three plants were tenderly cared for and quickly died. My landscaper said that our winters might be zone 8 but our summers are zone 9 in Charleston SC and rhododendrons do not do well here. He cautioned me not to get them. He was right. They cannot take the heat and/or our frequent rain. Such a shame as I so wanted those purple flowers.
hardy and fast growing
I ordered 5 of these and they have been in the ground for a month now. A second batch of leaves already sprouted and are now thick and green. They are all growing really well. We are at 8 500' up in the Rockies of Colorado
Amazing how fast it died
Received a beautiful plant... Carefully put it into the ground per your instructions prepared soil and added your fertilizer -- and within 2 weeks it shriveled and turned brown and then died!!! It was placed in partial shade/sun area and watered as instructed. Not happy about this... Not mad just very sad. Live in Dallas TX area.
Healthy Plants
I ordered and received two plants in May. One plant was severely damaged during shipping but one call to Fast-Growing Trees and the plant was replaced immediately with no hassle. The replacement arrived the first of June and now I have two very healthy Rhododendron growing either side of my porch. I have to say I was a bit skeptical about purchasing such large plants mail order but my experience with Fast-Growing Trees has been outstanding. Now its my job to keep them growing so I can have blooms next spring. Thank you
Planting & Care
Lavender Rhododendrons prefer acidic soil, but will adapt to your soil even if it's sandy or heavy in clay as long as it's well draining. Give your Lavender Rhododendron a deep watering once your soil feels dry to the touch down about two inches.
You'll know that spring has arrived when beautiful purple flowers emerge on your Lavender Rhododendron. After your flowers have bloomed fertilize your Lavender Rhododendron with an acidic fertilizer for an acid loving shrub.
