1. Rhododendron

Rhododendrons are some of the prettiest flowering shrubs ever, and many gardeners consider them the colorful kings of spring. You’ve probably seen them on your mountain getaways, and now you can have them in your garden.

They have masses of flowers in bright shades of purple, pink, yellow, red, or white. This plant doesn’t mind some shade, and it likes acid soil, so you can’t go wrong with it in woodland schemes. If you have a tiny garden, choose dwarf varieties, such as R. Princess Anne or R. impeditum, and they’ll look gorgeous.

If you love this plant as much as I do, check it out here!
