Rhododendron 'Anna Kruschke' - Shrub - Height 60-70cm - 10lt

Rhododendron ‘Anna Kruschke’ is a highly suitable choice for gardeners seeking a bold, reliable, and relatively low-maintenance evergreen shrub with strong ornamental impact. Its vigorous, upright growth makes it ideal for medium to large gardens, where it can serve as a striking focal point, a backdrop in mixed borders, or an anchor in woodland-style plantings. The glossy, deep green foliage provides structure throughout the year, while the rich reddish-purple blooms create a dramatic display each spring, making it especially valuable for gardens needing vibrant color.

This variety thrives in partial shade, performing best in locations with morning sun and afternoon protection. It prefers acidic, humus-rich, well-drained soil—conditions often shared by other ericaceous plants, making it an excellent companion for azaleas, camellias, pieris, and heathers. Its reliable hardiness allows it to flourish in cooler climates, where some rhododendrons may struggle, and it responds well to mulching and consistent moisture.

Because of its strong growth and impressive flowering, ‘Anna Kruschke’ is perfect for gardeners wanting a robust, statement-making shrub that remains attractive year-round while adding depth, color, and structure to a wide range of landscape designs.
