Rhododendron 'Firestorm'
This striking hybrid rhododendron, developed by Dr. Gustav Mehlquist at the University of Connecticut, combines Rhododendron 'Vulcan' and 'Chocolate Soldier' parentage. Distinctive ruffled blooms measuring 3¼ inches across display a vivid, solid deep red colouration without markings. Foliage emerges in bright lime tones before transitioning to deeper shades at maturity. The plant forms a compact, spreading habit, reaching 3 to 4 feet in both height and width, making it an excellent choice for landscape structure and seasonal colour impact.
