Growing to 1.5 m (4.9 ft) tall and broad, it is a compact evergreen shrub with rounded matt green leaves and rose pink bell-shaped flowers in spring.
In cultivation in the UK, Rhododendron williamsianum has gained the Royal Horticultural Society’s Award of Garden Merit.[3][4] It is hardy down to −15 °C (5 °F) but like most rhododendron species requires a sheltered position in dappled shade with acid soil that has been enriched with leaf mould.
