Rhododendron literally translates to "rose tree" in Greek. And while its ultimate origin is unclear, some scholars have connected the name of the Greek island of Rhodes, whose ancient harbor was home to the wondrous bronze statue known as Colossus of Rhodes, to the Greek ��ó��ǲ�, “r�ǲ��.”Rhod- is a variant of rhodo-, which loses its -o- when combined with words or word elements beginning with vowels.Want to know more?
