Rhododendron 'P.J.M. Regal', known as ‘P.J.M. Regal’ rhododendron, is a highly prized ornamental evergreen shrub, celebrated for its excellent hardiness and early blooming. This compact, dense variety forms a rounded bush that fits perfectly into flower beds, woodland gardens, and landscapes where acid-loving plants are favored. In spring, often very early in the season, it is covered with an abundance of bright rosy-lavender flowers grouped in elegant inflorescences. Its dark green, slightly glossy foliage often turns purplish-bronze during autumn and winter, adding extra decorative interest outside of the blooming period. Very adaptable, this rhododendron tolerates sun better than many other varieties, while preferring acidic, organically rich, and well-drained soils. Its early bloom and decorative foliage make it a reliable choice for northern gardens.
