Looking after my Queen Of Flowers

Below we will give you some useful tips so that you can enjoy the Rhododendron simsii for as long as possible. By purchasing a ‘Queen of Flowers’ product you are certain it is in the ideal flowering stage, which means that more than half of the flower buds show colour. If you buy a Rhododendron simsii that is too green, there is a chance that it will not continue to flower. The ‘Queen of Flowers’ needs a temperature of 15° to 25°. The plant prefers a bright spot but does not withstand direct sunlight and dislikes being put near a source of heat (radiator,…). Water your ‘Queen of Flowers’ every 3 days by submerging the pot in water during 1 minute. Drain the excess water. Do not fertilise during full bloom. Gently remove dead flowers. After the plant is past flowering, it is advisable to remove all flower buds (so that it can produce new shoots). Now you can plant it in the garden if you want. Fertilise during growth. Bring it inside for the winter (the plant does not tolerate frost). We are convinced that you will enjoy ‘Queen of Flowers’ for weeks on end if you follow our guidelines. Take a look at the pictures on the site and you will see that ‘Queen of Flowers’ is an ideal plant to create a cosy atmosphere in your home.
