John Druecker Memorial Rhododendron Show

Each year, the Noyo Chapter of the American Rhododendron Society (ARS) partners with Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens to showcase some of the best rhodie specimens on the west coast. Now in its 45th year, the John Druecker Memorial Rhododendron Show is held at the Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens in mid-May. The juried show is the largest in California with a typical show displaying more than 800 entries and filling the big tent with cascades of color and fragrance.
