Product Details

Product Details

Add stunning spring color and a luminous glow to woodland gardens, foundation plantings, and hedges with the radiant, color-shifting blossoms of large-leaved, compact, low-maintenance Rhododendron 'Solidarity.' The generously sized flowers (up to 3”) are borne in clusters like a bouquet, and they open cherry red before aging to pink and white. The sturdy, elliptical green leaves provide a handsome background for the blooms and evergreen color for the balance of the season.

Rhododendron is a genus of over 1,000 species of evergreen and deciduous shrubs, which includes Azaleas. These lovely shrubs look terrific in a mixed border or in foundation plantings. All thrive in full sun or partial shade (required in the South) and evenly moist, acid soil.

HOW PLANTS ARE SHIPPED

The size of the plants we ship has been selected to reduce the shock of transplanting. For some, this means a large, bareroot crown. Others cannot travel bareroot or transplant best if grown in containers. We ship these perennials and annuals in 1 pint pots, except as noted. We must point out that many perennials will not bloom the first year after planting, but will the following year, amply rewarding your patience. We ship bulbs as dormant, bare bulbs, sometimes with some wood shavings or moss. Shrubs, Roses, vines, and other woody plants may be shipped bareroot or in pots. The size of the pot is noted in the quick facts for each item.

WHEN WE SHIP

We ship our bulbs and plants at the right time for planting in your area, except as noted, with orders dispatched on a first-come, first-served basis by climate zone. We also ship a wide range of containers and planters, tools, supplies, fertilizers, garden wear, garden decor items, as well as indoor decorations like wreaths and dried bouquets when available. Estimated dates for shipping are indicated in the green Shipping Details box for each item. Please supply a street address for delivery. Kindly contact us with two weeks notice, if you'll be away at the expected time of delivery.

Rhododendron Solidarity

Cynthia Yngve from Easton, Ma.

Received my Rhododendron this past spring. Healthy, loaded with big fat buds that opened to look exactly like the pictures on your site. Absolutely beautiful! I hope to order the exact same one Spring of 2025.
One Happy customer !!!

Amazing plants

Tammy Sue from Carson city, NV

I ordered from White Flower Farms for the first time and was extremely impressed with the Solidarity Rhododendron they sent. They were the healthiest and most beautiful plants I have ever received from an online order. They are covered in buds and I am hoping they will bloom even after planted. I would not hesitate to order from White Flower Farms again.

Latin Name Pronunciation: roe-doe-den'-dron   

Rhododendrons and Azaleas grow in full sun or partial shade in the North, but prefer partial shade or shade in the South and in warm inland areas of the West. They require moisture-retentive but well-drained soil that is on the acidic side. Turn a healthy layer of organic matter into the soil before planting. Gardeners in the Deep South and West who have heavy clay soil should plant Rhododendrons so that the top of the root ball stands several inches above the surrounding soil, then push prepared soil around and just over the root ball to form a mound. Mulch after planting to keep roots cool and moist.

Removing spent flowers (tedious but rewarding work on large specimens) makes for a better show the following spring; take care when removing flowers not to damage new buds at the base of the old flower stems. Prune as needed after bloom, cutting just above a set of leaves.

Deciduous and evergreen Rhododendrons are ideal for shrub borders, mixed perennial and shrub borders, and foundation plantings.

Not recommended for desert areas.
