Comments: Depending on when this rhododendron was observed during the blooming season I could have also put "yellow" as the primary color! Large buds initially open pink with a crimson blotch and then turn yellow with the same colored blotch. Dark, glossy leaves are densely packed on this "two for one" treat.
