Detailed factsheet here.


Rhododendron macrophyllum: Pacific Rhododendron is a 5-25 ft evergreen shrub with large whorls of leathery, dark green, oblong leaves setting off spectacular flower clusters. Individual flowers are bell-shaped and range in color from pink to deep rose-purple. When growing in woods, the plants become tree-like to 25 ft with an attractive, leggy appearance. When open grown, the plant is shorter and more compact.
​
In the landscape: This is the showiest flowering shrub in the forests of western North America, with flower clusters that nearly rival in size and number those of its cultivated relatives. Pacific Rhododendron is confined to drier forest environments in western Washington, where it is the state flower. These same environments, however, are among the moister ones occurring in northern California, at the southern limit of this shrub’s range. The plant is most abundant in Oregon, where mass displays provide a spectacular show in late spring and early summer.
