While most Rhododendron species are toxic and should not be consumed, the leaves and flowers of Rhododendron ponticum, commonly known as the common rhododendron, are sometimes used in herbal teas, but caution is advised due to potential toxicity. Additionally, the flowers of some other species, such as Rhododendron maximum, can be used to make a mild tea. However, it is essential to ensure accurate identification and preparation, as improper consumption can lead to serious health issues. Always consult an expert before consuming any part of a Rhododendron.
