3、 Habits

Rhododendron likes to grow in acidic soil, but it doesn't grow well in alkaline soil. I like cool climate and environment. I'm afraid of extreme heat in summer. I can't stand the severe cold climate in winter. The temperature suitable for growth is about 12-25 degrees Celsius, so I need to take warm measures in winter. It is suitable for growing in astigmatism. If the light is too strong, it will burn the leaves, and if the light is insufficient, it will grow poorly
