My husband planted a small (about 8-10 inches)rhodie last April in a woodsy spot that gets lots of morning sun, but mainly mottled sun at best, the rest of the day. While it seems to be doing OK, nice and green still, put out a round of new leaves, etc, it doesn't seem to be getting any taller or much wider, for that matter. Is this typical? My guess is that it's hopefully still busily putting down lots of nice roots, and will start growing bigger next year, that's all it is, just a guess.
We have a lot of azaleas around the general area, which are doing great, but this is our first experience with rhodies.
