Goldkrone' Rhododendron,'Gold Crown' Rhododendron, Midseason Azalea
Compact and luminous, Rhododendron ‘Goldkrone’ is a lovely evergreen shrub producing eye-catching trusses of 16 to 18 light golden-yellow, trumpet-shaped flowers, up to 2.5 in. wide (7 cm), delicately freckled with reddish brown on their upper lobes. Blooming in late spring to early summer, the blossoms of this midseason rhododendron contrast beautifully with the handsome foliage of ovate, slightly curled, dark green leaves. Raised and introduced by Hans Hachmann, ‘Goldkrone’ is a winter hardy rhododendron that never fails to provide a splendid display when massed in shrub borders.
