Dora AmateisA low growing shrub that will grow 2 3 ft. in ten years. This plant blooms so profusely that the foliage completely disappears. It resembles an azalea and is great in mass plantings. It blooms in late April. If you are looking for a very hardy rhododendron that grows low and compact, and is pure white, look no further. This award winner will perform like no other.
