This compact Rhododendron variety is an excellent choice for gardens of all sizes, adding a touch of elegance, a burst of color, and a unique foliage feature.

One of the unique features of ‘Goldflimmer’ is its variegated foliage with golden-yellow markings. This adds a year-round visual interest to your garden even when it’s not in bloom. While ‘Goldflimmer’ may not be fragrant, its striking pink blooms and attractive foliage more than compensate for the lack of scent. It’s a hardy plant that can withstand various weather conditions once established.
With a 3-liter pot size, Rhododendron ‘Goldflimmer’ is a versatile option for container gardening or planting in beds and borders. Its compact size, vibrant pink flowers, and stunning variegated foliage make it a captivating addition to any garden, providing color and elegance each spring and visual interest throughout the year.
