Description
Rhododendron yakushimanum 'Dreamland' is an evergreen bush. In spring, this floriferous variety is covered with flowers in a pretty range of pink. It will dress up your flower beds and hedges in all seasons.
'Dreamland' forms a dense bush, with a spreading habit of 70 cm (27.6 in) in height and 80 cm (31.5 in) in width when fully grown. Its evergreen leaves are dark green and brownish on the underside, with an elliptical shape, elongated and leathery with a prominent central vein. In spring, the new shoots have a silvery colour. During April and May, this dwarf bush is covered with flowers, formed by terminal corymbs composed of 3 to 6 trumpet-shaped flowers in intense pink colour at the centre, sprinkled with salmon pink spots and pale pink margins. In spring, it will charm you with its cloud-like appearance of flowers.
Hardy up to -20° C (-4° F), 'Dreamland' likes a sunny or semi-shady exposure. With slow growth, this acid-loving bush prefers humus-bearing and moist but well-drained soils.
'Dreamland' will be ideal for flower beds or as a standalone plant. It will dress up your garden all year round. Plant it on a slope or in a rockery alongside magnolias, pieris, heathers, kalmias, azaleas, and Japanese maples.

Planting and care
Plant in a sunny or semi-shaded position, protected from cold and drying winds, in moist, humus-bearing and light soil, with an acidic tendency. Like all plants that prefer acid soil, it does not tolerate chalky or heavy soils that become waterlogged in winter. Dig a hole three times larger than the pot. Soak the root ball in non-chalky water and plant the bush at the level of the collar, in a mixture composed of 1/4 turf, leaf compost, gravel or pumice, and loam. Water generously and keep the soil moist in summer. Azaleas and rhododendrons have a shallow root system. As a result, they are susceptible to long periods of drought. It is therefore advisable to enrich the soil with humus and to water abundantly during dry periods. Additionally, this root system is not very strong, which is why it is essential to lighten heavy soils with draining materials (gravel, pumice, clay pellets) at planting. Apply a mulch of shredded pine bark around the base of the bush every spring to maintain soil moisture and acidity. Maintenance consists of removing faded flowers in summer and cleaning out dead branches. Azaleas and rhododendrons can sometimes be attacked by weevils, which eat the edges of leaves and rootlets, as well as the infamous "rhododendron beetle," which rarely causes significant damage. Yellowing of the leaves (chlorosis) indicates poor assimilation of iron in the soil and can lead to premature death of the plant. While limestone is often the cause, poorly-drained soil or a deeply planted root ball can also explain the phenomenon.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
