Ray was astonished when I just came in with this pic of the rhododendron which has been languishing in a pot down by the stream and never flowering. He also said the flowers were more an apricot colour the first and only time it flowered. So I fished the label out of the soil in the pot and then I could understand why it doesn't flower very often!
Ha! I love little surprises like this. And what a great contrast from languishing to this beautiful picture! Grumpy no longer. I learned grumpy in sign language this week if you need that.
Amazing. And a beautiful pic.`s to show it.
The third name of a new species of a plant is often given by the grower. ( S)He often take`s a name of famous people. They can do the naming
Did a little bit of research and it seems a series of rhododendrons was named after Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.................
Many thanks!
