Rhododendrons, azaleas, and mountain laurels Evergreen broadleaf |
Rhododendrons are reliable, beautifully flowering, evergreen shrubs of variable origin: S.W. China, Himalayas, Northern America, and even Europe. The original species were hybridized several times for better performance so in the 1950´s there were more than 10,000 cultivars registered, and the number keeps increasing.
LADY LASA® is a French addition to the coral-coloured rhododendrons. It was bred by Christian de la Sabliere from Boutiguery Nursery at the west coast of France, close to Atlantic Ocean. From late April open medium large, highly attractive, broadly bell-shaped flowers which are pale yellow inside and salmon pink outside with coral orange hues and a deep maroon eye in the throat. Evergreen leaves are leathery, oval to broadly elliptic, partially glossy, bronze red when they emerge and dark green when mature. The plant grows slowly and forms a dense shrub about one meter tall and wide in maturity. European patent was applied for in 2019.
For a better-looking plant deadhead where possible. The roots are shallow, spreading to sides in search for nutrients. Never plant them too deep. The soil must be acidic (pH 4.5-5.5), rich in humus, cool and always moist. Ideal soil mixture is peat with lime-free, light garden soil topped with leaf-mould. It is hardy to abt. -24°C (USDA zone 6) and may withstand a few degrees lower (more trials pending).
