Sweetbay Rhododendron

summersbest
13 years ago

I was just disappointed to learn that the bottlebrush buckeyes I was eager to plant as a screen are susceptable to Japanese beetles which are awful here.

The Sweetbay Rhododendron could serve a similar function and is listed as resistant to JBs. I'm in northern Illinois. Looking to hear from folks who've had successes or challenges or recommendations for variety of this shrub.

Thanks in advance.
