Rhododendron Golden Green Gift is a stunning, evergreen shrub that combines visual appeal with hardiness, making it a prized addition to gardens across the UK. Known for its vibrant, golden-yellow foliage, this cultivar stands out throughout the year, providing a striking contrast to other plants. The leaves are glossy and have a unique golden-green hue, which deepens in intensity as the seasons change, ensuring year-round visual interest. In spring, Golden Green Gift produces delicate clusters of funnel-shaped flowers that are typically a soft, pale yellow or cream colour. These blooms are aromatic, attracting bees and other pollinators, which makes the plant an excellent choice for supporting local wildlife.
This rhododendron grows to a moderate size, typically reaching around 1 to 1.5 metres in height, making it perfect for smaller to medium-sized gardens. It is relatively compact and bushy, with dense foliage that provides excellent coverage and can be used as a low hedge or feature plant in borders. The plant thrives in acidic, well-drained soil and prefers partial shade, making it ideal for woodland gardens or shaded areas in more open spaces.
Golden Green Gift is also prized for its resilience, as it is hardy in a wide range of climates, tolerating colder temperatures common in the UK. Its ability to withstand frost, combined with its low maintenance needs, makes it a popular choice for both novice and experienced gardeners alike. Regular watering and occasional feeding are sufficient for healthy growth, but it does not require frequent pruning. Overall, Rhododendron Golden Green Gift is a reliable, attractive shrub that adds year-round beauty and texture to any garden.

About Us
During this time, we have developed a large stock of trees, mature evergreen shrubs, conifers, Japanese maples, cedars and olives. What sets us apart from a generic garden center is solid unwavering focus on trees and some bigger shrubs. You will find thousands of trees, hundreds of varieties and lots of experts who are working on the nursery and more than willing to help you to choose a plant for you.
What you will not find is hot tubs, garden furniture and plastic garden gnomes. In a nutshell, trees is what we know and trees is what we do, and only trees (and some shrubs to go with the trees).
