Rhododendron 'Haaga'

FamilyEricaceae

Rhododendron 'Haaga', commonly known as 'Haaga' rhododendron, is an evergreen ornamental shrub with a dense, rounded habit, renowned for its deep pink blossoms and exceptional hardiness. Selected for cold climates, it offers large clusters of bright pink, slightly wavy flowers in spring, highly visible in shaded beds. Its dark green, thick, and glossy foliage remains decorative all year round and can take on purplish hues in winter. Vigorous and reliable, Rhododendron 'Haaga' prefers a semi-shady exposure and acidic, organic-rich, well-drained soil. Ideal for isolated planting, foundation planting, or as an informal hedge, it is a durable choice for structuring landscaping in acidic soil.
