Rhododendron Species Foundation and Botanical Garden

 

Federal Way, Washington, (located conveniently between Seattle and Tacoma) is home to the RSF, a non-profit organization.

Here, over twenty-two acres of botanical splendor hold one of the largest collections of species rhododendrons and azaleas in the world. Gathered from across the globe, nurtured, propagated, available for both viewing pleasure and sale, we offer a rare opportunity for rhododendron and garden lovers everywhere.

We offer selected plants for catalog, or local sale, and have seeds and pollen also available.
