  • Compact & Elegant Growth – Reaching 4-5 feet tall and wide, this well-shaped shrub is perfect for borders, foundation plantings, and woodland gardens.
  • Thrives in Partial Shade – Prefers morning sun with afternoon shade, making it an excellent choice for shaded garden beds and under tree canopies.

  • Low-Maintenance & Heat-Tolerant – Once established, the Southgate Radiance requires minimal care, making it a great addition to Southern landscapes.


While many Rhododendrons can't handle swelteringly hot temperatures, the extraordinary new Southgate Rhododendrons from the Southern Living Plant Collection can handle the dog days and won't skip a beat in the deep south heat. The Radiance Southgate Rhododendron has intense lavender buds that open up to snowy white and magenta blooms in Spring. This evergreen shrubs growth rate is fairly slow and will stay compact and manageable at only 4-5' tall x 4-5 wide. The Radiance will be happy and healthy when planted in well-drained garden soil in part shade to full shade. Fertilize once yearly in early Spring to make sure this Rhododendron stays packed with blooms.---------- This item includes: One 2.5 Quart Radiance Southgate Rhododendron (live plant) in a plastic pot with soil. The pot will be wrapped in a polybag to retain moisture and hold any soil that shakes lose in shipping. The plant will be shipped in a cardboard box that has been designed to hold the plant in place to reduce any chance of damage in transit. As soon as the plant arrives it should be unpackaged, un-bagged, and watered. --------These plants ship from the Gulf Coast of Alabama. We recommend that customers outside of the Southeastern United States order during the milder times of year (Spring/Fall) to prevent heat/cold stress during transit.
