Rhododendrons

Bride

Rhododendron 'Bride'

'Caucasicum Album', selfed

Syn: 'The Bride'

Standish & Noble 1850

FCC 1871

Flowers: White with green spots

May

Not scented

Foliage: Elepidote. Much variegated

Other information: Bean (1976) described a caucasicum hybrid with similar flowers in greater detail (under 'The Bride'),but it lacked variegated foliage; either this was not the same plant or the variegation had been lost. Unlikely to be commercially available
