Sorry, Linda, for the belated reply, but we just arrived back from Vietnam, with a
slew of exigencies to attend to and the WiFi connections in Vietnam were very spotty.

The point I was making in that post is, despite the fact that rhododendron grow wild in
HZ3 or so, they still seem to appreciate having their roots protected in much warmer
regions. I found that interesting, but not particularly helpful for myself, since they just
do not fit into my landscaping preferences.

Yes, they appear to be native to wilderness regions all over the Pacific northwest.

Best,
Olaf
