The Vancouver Rhododendron Society is a chapter of the American Rhododendron Society, an international organization of rhododendron enthusiasts. It provides an opportunity to learn about rhododendrons, their culture, history, and collection, to obtain rare and unusual specimens grown by local growers, and to meet with others with like interests.
