Rhododendron ‘Bubblegum’ is a a polyploid version of the tried and true standard ‘Weston’s Aglo’. ‘Bubblegum’ has larger flowers than it’s predecessor and makes a terrific show against the more substantial foliage.

A low, compact evergreen that is a perfect foreground for larger flowering shrubs. Works well for containers.
