It matures into a substantial, well-rounded shrub of 6 to 10 feet, giving you year-round structure and a burst of cool-toned color just as the garden wakes up. With its mountain-laurel parentage, this is a classic landscape rhododendron that earns its place as a foundation anchor, an evergreen screen, or the backbone of a shaded border.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy growers choose the Boursault\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCold-hardy backbone.\u003c\/strong\u003e Bred from the rugged Catawba rhododendron, it thrives in USDA zones 4 through 8 and shrugs off winters that defeat more tender broadleaf evergreens.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenerous spring bloom.\u003c\/strong\u003e Large, dome-shaped trusses of lavender-purple flowers cover the plant in spring, each cluster packed with many individual blossoms.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eYear-round green.\u003c\/strong\u003e Thick, leathery evergreen foliage holds through every season, so the shrub never goes bare and keeps screening and structure intact in winter.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSubstantial, mounded form.\u003c\/strong\u003e A moderate grower that fills in to 6 to 10 feet wide, ideal where you want presence and privacy without constant pruning.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePollinator draw.\u003c\/strong\u003e The spring trusses are a welcome early nectar source for bees and visiting hummingbirds.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSite it along a shaded foundation, group several as an informal evergreen hedge or woodland screen, or set it as the structural centerpiece of a part-shade border underplanted with ferns, hostas, and other acid-loving companions like azaleas and pieris.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Live Good Logistics","offers":[{"title":"2-3 ft.","offer_id":43881212444750,"sku":"EVE-RHO-LAV-23-3G","price":149.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"1 Gallon","offer_id":43881212477518,"sku":"EVE-RHO-LAV-NA-1G","price":69.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6973\/9854\/files\/iStock-962965648.jpg?v=1781886785","url":"https:\/\/uandyou.myshopify.com\/products\/boursault-catawba-rhododendron","provider":"U and You","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
