Question
I need help identifying this shrub. I didn't plant it and it has been here three years now. The flowers bloom first and are very fragrant, then as the blooms fall off the leaves grow. I live in southeast Nebraska and no one seems to know what this plant is. The closest thing I can find on line is a Rhododendron Canadense.
Answer
Dear dmkasta, your plant is certainly a species of Rhododendron (as you suspected). Without a close-up image of the flower (front and side), it would be difficult for me to help you determine exactly which species it is. Best wishes.
