Remarkable Rhododendrons and Their Magnificent Friends
April 27 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm
$29
Almost every landscape in the Eastern US contains at least a few rhododendrons, laurels, or azaleas. Acidic, forested soils and moderate, moist climate make much of the Eastern US perfect for many, many members of the heath family (Ericaceae), and we have one of the most diverse assemblages of species anywhere in North America. In this in-depth talk, Bill Cullina will showcase the eastern species from Arctostaphylos to Zenobia, detailing their ecology, form, cultivation, and landscape uses.
This program takes place in person at Mt. Cuba Center on Sunday, April 27, 2025 (Rain Date: Sunday, May 4).
