This is a relatively low maintenance shrub, and should only be pruned after flowering to avoid removing any of the current season's flowers. It has no significant negative characteristics.
Cunningham's White Rhododendron is covered in stunning clusters of lightly-scented white trumpet-shaped flowers with a coppery-bronze blotch at the ends of the branches in mid spring. It has dark green evergreen foliage. The narrow leaves remain dark green throughout the winter.
