Rhododendron 'Moerheims Pink’ is a Williamsianum hybrid rhododendron. Plants in this group have rounded leaves. It bears pink, bell-shaped flowers in early May. A compact shrub, it’s ideal for growing as part of a mixed ornamental display in a border as well as on its own in a container on the patio.

Grow Rhododendron 'Moerheims Pink' in humus-rich, moist but well-drained neutral to acidic soil (or peat-free ericaceous compost). Rhododendrons are shallow-rooted so take care not to plant too deeply. Protect from harsh winter winds and mulch annually with a generous layer of leaf mould. There should be little or no need to prune.
