Source: JARS V46:No.1:p21:y1992 Tips for Beginners: Good Soil Promises Rhodie Success The article was compiled from Greer's Guidebook to Available Rhododendrons by Harold Greer, a past president of the ARS and owner of Greer Gardens in Eugene, Oregon. "Rhododendrons are forgiving plants, but there are some things they just won't tolerate. So, it is important to understand their basic requirements," Mr. Greer tells the newcomer to rhododendron gardening. The three basic requirements he lists all hinge on the quality of the soil in which - or on which - the rhododendron is planted. First, he says, they must have a constant supply of moisture. Second, they must never sit in stagnant water. And, third, they must be grown in a coarse, acid medium. Provide these conditions and you will succeed in growing a healthy rhododendron no matter where you live, provided the hybrid or species is suited to the climate, he promises. Then he goes on to tell you how to provide these conditions. One distinction to note here is that the "planting medium" and the "natural soil" may well be two different substances in your garden. You will provide the planting medium, while nature provides the natural soil, which is usually a less than ideal soil for rhododendrons. Mr. Greer then tells you to go outside and take a look at your soil. "Consider the growing medium (the improved top layer of soil if there is one) and also the soil and drainage that is underneath the proposed planting. You must determine whether or not your soil has good drainage. If heavy clay is present you must overcome this barrier. Dig a small hole and run some water into it; if the water does not disappear in a very few minutes, you have poor drainage. This is not a sure test, but it will give you a good indication. Now examine the soil texture; is it sandy, or is it composed of fine clay particles? Sometimes the topmost soil layer will drain well, but there will be a hardpan underneath it that will not drain. So, watch for this condition." If your natural soil is perfect rhododendron soil, you can put this article down and take up your shovel and proceed. There are such soils, but most are not so fortunate.

References These pages are the result of information I have picked up over 35 years at American Rhododendron Society meetings, and in the numerous books which I have made available in the Rhododendron and Azalea Bookstore .

All proceeds from the Rhododendron and Azalea Bookstore are contributed to the ARS Research Fund and the Rhododendron Species Foundation Genus Rhododendron Rhododendron are shrubs of the genus Rhododendron which is in the heath family (family Ericaceae) which includes heathers, Kalmia (mountain laurels), blueberries and cranberries. Since almost all of these plants require acidic soil, they are often referred to as the family of acid-loving plants. Rhododendron are found in the wild, chiefly in mountainous areas of the arctic and north temperate zones. They typically have large, shiny, leathery evergreen leaves and clusters of large pink, white, or purplish flowers. North American species include the great laurel, or rose bay (R. maximum), West Virginia's state flower; and the Western rhododendron (R. macrophyllum), Washington's state flower. Azaleas are in the same genus. Most cultivated rhododendrons are hybrids that are propagated from cuttings or tissue culture. Rhododendron are referred to as the King of Shrubs since they are regarded by many as the best flowering evergreen plants for the temperate landscape.

The locals along the Black Sea repeated the stunt against General Pompey a few centuries later. And the tactic purportedly worked again when the much-legended amazonian Queen Olga of medieval Kiev gave tribute of Black Sea honey to invading Russians, then killed the lot of them while they were in hallucinatory stupors. none In theory, though not in reported actuality, if a hive spent the two or three weeks that Rhododendron albiflorum is blooming here in the Northwest, gleaning from nothing else, a toxic honey could result.

They form great blocks of colour as branches become obscured by a profusion of beautiful flowers. In this article Recommended varieties Growing tips Problem solver The only areas where rhododendrons don't occur in the wild are Africa and South America. They've been grown in Britain since the 18th century, but it wasn't until the 1900s that they became widely known. The start of the 20th century saw a flood of new species introduced by plant hunters, while over the past few decades most of the breeding has been done in north America and Germany. The latter has produced plants better suited to the UK climate and smaller gardens, as they grow about 1.2m (4ft) high after ten to 15 years, and also flower from a young age. Two of the best include
