Rhododendron ‘Susannah Hill’
Evergreen azalea ‘Susannah Hill’
Polly Hill was an exceptional plantswoman from Martha’s Vineyard. Many of Polly’s azaleas are interspecific hybrids involving an incredibly compact azalea from Taiwan called Rhododendron nakaharae. ‘Susannah Hill’ is another groundcover azalea hybrid, this time with extra flower petals, creating a double flower appearance. ‘Susannah Hill’ grows next to ‘Joseph Hill’ just beyond the canopy walk in the Helen S. Layer Rhododendron garden.
