Rhododendron 'PJM Compact'

FamilyEricaceae

Rhododendron 'PJM Compact' is a dwarf selection of the classic 'PJM', offering the same hardiness and flowering qualities, but in an even smaller format. It produces lavender-pink flowers in April, borne in dense clusters over dark green foliage with bronze highlights. Ideal for small gardens, rock gardens, or container growing, it combines performance, hardiness, and spring beauty in an easy-care format.
