With some of the prettiest flowers, Rhododendron 'Ken Janeck' is a broadleaf evergreen rhododendron which, in mid spring, displays abundant clusters of about 13 to 17 soft pink trumpet-shaped flowers. Each richly colored bloom of this midseason rhododendron opens up from deep rose-pink buds to pale pink blossoms and gradually fades to white, the upper lobe being slightly spotted green. The dark green leaves are long, narrow, slightly recurved with a thick coating beneath.
