ARHS March 2026 Presentation: “The Smallest Rhododendrons”, Mike Stewart, ARS Portland Oregon Chapter

From his extensive experience growing smaller Rhododendrons, Mike shows the habitat that many of the smaller Rhodos are found in China, how  to duplicate these conditions in a nursery and techniques for propagation  of the smaller Rhodos.  As many of these plants are from  cooler, higher altitudes, our relatively cool  summer temperatures in Atlantic  Canada lets us grow a wide selection of these plants.

Mike Stewart owned Dover Nursery, an  important Rhododendron  Nursery near Portland OR.   A former President of  both the American Rhododendron  Society and the Rhododendron Species Foundation,  Mike is involved with the renovations and renewal of Van Veen  Nursery.
