'Giga'
Dwarf Rhododendron
This April photo gives an idea of how very small
this rhody is, these two young shrubs being
no taller than little bunchberries.
As this early April close-up conveys, the bright pink
freckled, rather flat trumpets are fairly large
comparated to the leaves & height.
Here it is the year before (in 2003), with its
early April buds like soft little pillows .
A week later the little pillows are opening into bloom,
& already producing new sage-green leaves.
