Blooming in early to mid spring, it bears abundant, vivid yellow, trumpet-shaped flowers with darker spotting on their dorsal lobes. Luminous, they brighten any shady corner of the garden and contrast beautifully with the evergreen foliage of elliptic, glossy green leaves. 'Saffron Queen' is a rhododendron hybrid of upright, open habit. It prefers some sun and is tender - hardy to -7°C.
