How can I ensure successful growth when planting rhododendrons in my garden?

To ensure successful growth when planting rhododendrons in your garden, choose a location with well-draining soil, partial shade, and protection from harsh winds. Plant the rhododendrons at the right depth, water them regularly, and mulch around the base to retain moisture. Fertilize them with a balanced fertilizer in the spring and prune them lightly after flowering to promote new growth.
