Rhododendron 'Hachmann's Feuerschein'

This striking rhododendron cultivar produces abundant cherry-red to deep crimson blooms from late May through mid-June, creating a dramatic seasonal display. The dark green, semi-glossy foliage remains year-round, providing structure and visual interest beyond the flowering season. Growth habit is restrained and densely branched, with prolific flowering evident even on immature specimens. Mature plants (10 years) typically reach just over one meter in height with comparable spread. Exceptionally cold-hardy, it thrives in full sun to partial shade and tolerates severe winter conditions, making it a reliable performer in challenging climates.
