Notice

Colin Mills, compiler of the Hortus Camdenensis, died in late November 2012 after a short illness. As he always considered the Hortus his legacy, it is his family's intention to keep the site running in perpetuity. It will not, however, be updated in the near future.

Rhododendron indicum ‘Woodsii’

A cultivar of Rhododendron indicum Sweet, this azalea is listed as good garden varieties by later editions of Paxton's Dictionary but without description.  I have found no other description.
