Seattle gardening expert Ciscoe Morris revealed a recent rhododendron failure.
“Okay, even a garden expert makes a dim-dim maneuver now and then. This little rhody is a really expensive rare variety, it’s lepidostylum. It’s famous for having these blueish leaves it has these beautiful yellow flowers,” he said.
Ciscoe’s lepidostylum wasn’t beautiful, it was brown and sad. He explained his mistake was two-fold.
“I put it in a spot that was too shady. It started thinning out,” said Ciscoe. “So I thought all right, I’m going to stick it where it gets more sunlight. It got a little more sunlight than I thought it was going to. Oh, you poor guy. I am so sorry.”
