Our range of tropical Vireya Rhododendrons, for exotic flowering indoors or outdoors in mild climates. Unlike the large garden Rhododendrons, Vireya originate from the tropical forests of Southeast Asia. They stand out for their flowering, often in winter, and bear evergreen foliage. Rhododendron vireya ‘Oogappel’ produces large funnel-shaped flowers in a bright coral pink, which will brighten up the home in winter. ‘Aertycke’ offers pastel tones and a compact habit well-suited to pot cultivation. The more unique Rhododendron vireya ‘Calavar’ displays wide, open bicoloured trumpets in a deep pink with a yellow heart that creates a lovely contrast.
There are many tropical rhododendrons, mainly grouped in the subgenus Vireya, which includes over 300 natural species originating notably from New Guinea, Borneo, Sumatra, and the Philippines. Among them: Rhododendron lochiae, Rhododendron jasminiflorum, Rhododendron laetum, Rhododendron zoelleri. These Vireya dislike frost and overly dry environments.
