Day 73: Rhododenron
Rhododendra should be considered annuals, at least in this climate. Or, if you have a crazy idea that you'd like to keep one alive for multiple years, don't plant it in fill dirt. Also, don't plant it in a hot dry spot. And if the winter is really long and cold, cover it.
Or, why not just compost it, replace it with an ornamental grass and comfort yourself with the thought that your dead rhododendron is still a part of the circle of life?
