Hi! I am looking for a source of Rhododendron "Avondale". It's listed in the Greer's but they don't have it and weren't familiar with it. It is a cross 'Pygmalion' x haematodes x 'Wellfleet', medium height, red with black spotting flower. Olive green foliage. Is anyone familiar with it? Thanks! Meredith M.
Saw something about it on here: http://www.plantsearchonline.com/nurseryPlants.asp?NSY=XVV saying it was avaliable from Van Veen Nursery...here is their site: http://www.rhododendron.org/display/VanVeenNursery.htm I am not sure if that helps, but there you go. Ti'ana
I grow it. It's the red by Charles Dexter that has the least blue in it. It's a very red red. Because of that it clashes with many pink rhodies. It is not an outstanding grower in the northeast.
