Rhododendron 'Buttermint' features bell-shaped flowers with wavy edges, measuring approximately 2¾" across. The blooms display a pale yellow hue accented by moderate pink along the margins and undersides, arranged in flat clusters of about 15 flowers. Its elliptic leaves, around 3" long with a pointed tip and rounded base, are slightly textured and maintain medium green colouration for two to three years. New shoots emerge with a bronzy-green tint, contributing to its dense, compact form. This variety thrives best in partially shaded environments.
