This rhododendron has it all! First you get two flower colors in one. Clusters  of pink buds open up in mid-May to exhibit pure white blooms with pale  yellow throats. All of this against dark, rich green broadleaf foliage on a  vigorously growing plant suitable for even the most challenging temperatures  as it does well in zones 4 to 8. 

It is a broadleaf evergreen with a dense rounded form with few, if any,  diseases or insects that have any impact on its success in the landscape. A low  maintenance, heat and drought tolerant shrub once established which can be  used as a foundation plant, or in a woodland setting that is reminiscent of its  native home in the eastern U. S. 

Album Rhododendron Care 

Like most rhododendrons this one prefers an enriched, well-drained soil that  is slightly on the acidic side. A mix of peat moss, cow manure and or compost  incorporated into the planting site would do nicely. Planted in a sunny but  partially shaded area would be preferable for this rhododendron. When  choosing a planting site consider an area with dappled sunshine and you can’t  go wrong. 

To maintain its size and shape the rhododendron is best pruned immediately  after flowering and requires no deadheading of the spent blooms. Water well  into winter as rhododendrons leaves can be damaged due to desiccation.  

Album Rhododendron Spacing 

Reaching a height of 6 to 7 feet this rhododendron, planted in the proper  location, would make a nice focal point or hedge. It would look fantastic  planted en masse as an understory to pines or oaks.
