Comments: Giant, pink trusses on a sturdy growing rhododendron with large, dark green leaves attached with red petioles. Though credited to Lem, Frank Mossman discovered this hybrid on one of his many trips there. Give it room to grow as it will easily exceed six-feet. Also sold as 'Pink Walloper'.
