If you're looking for a fragrant, flowering shrub to add to your garden, consider Rhododendron fortunei, or Fortune Rhododendron. This species hails from eastern China and can grow up to 20 ft in height. It has dense, evergreen foliage with oblong, leathery leaves that are 8-14.5 cm long. From April to May, it produces trusses of 6-12 white or pink flowers that are up to 3 inches across and emit a sweet fragrance. Fortune Rhododendron is the parent of many popular hybrids, including 'Loderi', and is hardy to -15°F. It is also a great understock for grafting its own hybrids and those of R. griffithianum. With its attractive foliage and showy blooms, Rhododendron fortunei is a must-have for any garden.
