The Rhododendron Species Botanical Garden is a non-profit membership organization dedicated to the conservation, public display, and distribution of Rhododendron species. Home to the largest collections of species rhododendrons in the world, the garden displays over 900 of the more than 1,100 species found in the wilds of North America, Europe, and Asia, as well as the tropical regions of southeast Asia and northern Australia. Conservation has become especially important in recent years with the ongoing destruction of Rhododendron habitats in many parts of the world.
