Rhododendron 'Nova Zembla'
Rhododendron ‘Nova Zembla’, commonly called ‘Nova Zembla’ rhododendron, is an ornamental evergreen shrub with a broad and dense habit, renowned for its spectacular flowering and great hardiness. In spring, it is covered with large clusters of intense ruby-red flowers marked with a dark blotch in the center, creating a striking visual impact in beds or as a foundation planting. Its dark green, leathery, and glossy foliage remains decorative all year round, providing a beautiful winter presence. Vigorous and reliable, Rhododendron ‘Nova Zembla’ adapts well to northern climates when planted in partial shade in acidic, organically rich, and well-drained soil. Ideal as a specimen plant or in an informal hedge, it brings lasting structure and color to gardens with acidic soil.
