Fact check: the woman turned 100 in 2023. The oldest rhododendron was 48, having been planted in 1975. The story is amazing on its own, no need to fabricate a more fantastic one.

This is my sign to plant a rhododendron

Please do some research first, depending on your location and the specific variant of rhododendron you plant you may introduce an invasive plant.

[–] [email protected] 38 points 1 year ago

Exactly. You could end up with humans that live for 100+ years.

Wait what? Invasive? I have never seen one that just spreads like mint or buttercups

I'm pretty sure that rhododendrons originate from Asia.

It's a large family with a large geographic area. Some are native to the Americas as well.

And North America. Mostly on the west coast of the US and BC, although they have cousins sometimes called ‘mountain laurel’ on the east coast of the US.

Confusingly, in some places on the east coast, they call mountain laurel ‘rhododendron’ as well.

Imagine be able to live 100 years at the same place. i moved like 20 times and i'm not even 40..

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

Wow... Wonder what variant that is. Mine seems to never grow. Is in more than 10 years grown maybe a few centimeters.

There should be juxtaposing text that says "I want to believe".
