Rhododendron 'griffithianum x fortunei (Lushan Form)'

These are seedlings grown from a hand-pollination done here at the RSBG utilizing the famous and beautiful Lushan form of fortunei with its large rounded leaves and deep pink, large and fragrant flowers combined with our hardiest form of griffithianum in an attempt to “redo” the original cross that resulted in the famous “Loderi” grex of hybrids.  Please let us know how your plant survives and what the flowers look like when it blooms.
