‘Olga Mezitt’ A vigorous grower with a spreading, upright habit and bears an abundance of showy, vivid, peach-pink flowers beginning in late April. The   ‘P.J.M.’ group of rhododendrons are smaller, growing to a height of 4 feet tall. Form is rounded and foliage is leathery and dark green until fall when it turns red, persisting through winter. One of the reasons the ‘P.J.M.’ group is such a heavy flowerer is that the plant does not set seed. ‘P.J.M.’is a small-leaved, compact evergreen Rhodo known for its beautiful and profuse spring flowers and neat appearance. It is probably the most adaptable and easiest rhododendron to grow. It is often used for group or mass plantings, shrub borders, or in a woodland setting beneath a high tree canopy. This rhododendron is exceptionally winter/cold hardy. The flowers which bloom in mid to late April are a vivid, bright lavender pink.  This plant generally blooms heavily and reliably every year. The PJM Rhododendron is also known for its foliage which is dark green and slightly shiny in summer and turns a plum purple color in fall. Plant the PJM Rhododendron in partial shade to full sun. More sun exposure will create more winter foliage color. It will grow from 3 to 6 feet in height.
