Red flowers with a slight lavender tinge form numerous trusses. The flowers attract hummingbirds, butterflies, and bees, so consider the Catawba rhododendron for butterfly and pollinator gardens. Flowering occurs late April - June, depending on climate, elevation, etc.
Glossy deep green foliage covers the plant to the ground and is attractive year-round adding interest to winter gardens and naturalized areas.
