The word rhododendron comes from the Greek words rhodos, for rose; and dendron, for tree. For their blossom may have beauty and color competitive to rose blooms. And they tend to be classified, because of their usual maximum height of 30'/9.144 m, as shrubs and small trees.
Rhododendrons are shrubs. Evergreen leaves in winter with multicolored blooms from early spring
