A Passion For Rhododendrons - Movie Trailer

[MendocinoCoastFilms2]

pindi2009: Thank you! Rhododendrons require moisture and a climate that keeps their roots from drying out or they must have some sort of irrigation. There are few places on earth where these remarkable plants grow naturally, but with proper care they can handle a variety of locations. The film explains how to grow and propagate rhododendrons, features many extraordinary rhododendron gardens, and gives a behind-the-scene look with jurors and how they select winners of a rhododendron show.

Such a wonderful excerpt from such a great documentary. Rhodie season quickly approaches here on the North Coast of Mendocino. If you have never been lucky enough to experience the true beauty of nature in the form of wild rhododendrons in full bloom, this film is for you. We here on the North Coast are lucky to have rhodies growing naturally. Yes, many of us take it for granted. But for the rest of us, it's pure magic.
