Rhododendron macrophyllum

Pacific rhododendron is a large, upright evergreen shrub that thrives in partial to full shade and acidic soil, making it ideal for woodland gardens and forest edges. In late spring to early summer, it bursts into bloom with spectacular clusters of large, vibrant pink to white flowers that stand out against its dark green, leathery foliage. This striking shrub not only adds dramatic beauty to the landscape but also supports native pollinators, such as bees and hummingbirds, and provides excellent cover for birds and small wildlife.

  • Plant type/canopy layer: evergreen, perennial, large shrub
  • Size at maturity: 3-25' tall, 5-10' wide
  • Light requirements: part sun/part shade, full shade
  • Moisture requirements: dry to moist soil
  • Bloom time: April - August (depending on location and altitude) 
  • Growth rate/ease: medium growth rate, easy to grow in the right conditions
  • Wildlife support: flowers attract and provide nectar to hummingbirds, adult butterflies, bees and other insect pollinators and are eaten by deer; the overall plant is known to be a nesting site for songbirds, provides shelter for small mammals and is believed to host 23 species of native butterflies and moths  
  • Native habitat/range: grows in moist to dry forested environments, particularly Douglas-fir and mixed evergreen forests, sea level to 1900m, from British Columbia to Northern California. In Oregon and Washington, it primarily occurs from the Cascades to the coast. Portland Plant List - no. 
  • Special features & uses: deer resistant foliage (flowers may be fair game); evergreen; according to the Washington Native Plant Society Karuk have used Pacific rhododendron in the luck-getting ceremony of the sweat house and Pomo have used the flowers in dance wreaths for the strawberry festival; landscape uses include pollinator gardens, woodland gardens, erosion control and habitat hedgerows; state flower of Washington  

Gardening with Pacific Rhododendron: This is a plant that will tolerate a wide range of growing conditions, even the dreaded dry shade. That said, you'll get the most robust plant and dazzling flowers if you offer it partial sun with acidic soils that are loamy or clay and well-drained (it will not perform well in sandy soils). Try it as an anchor in your woodland garden, interspersed with native ferns and groundcovers, as part of a flowering habitat hedgerow or as a foundation plant that will frame your home after many years of growth.

Great introduction to Godot 4
Format: Kindle
I've been writing various types of software for 10 years and was interested in learning Godot for 2D games. This book turned out to be informative and easy to follow and gave me the knowledge I was seeking. I learn best by example, and this project focused book was excellent in that regard. If you have zero programming experience, I would recommend learning something like Python before diving into this book. The book teaches with GDScript, which is Godot's Python-like programming language. There are some minor mistakes in the book, but an errata is currently being kept up-to-date on the github repository for the book. I opened a few issues for things I discovered, and the author added those things to the errata. Keep this in mind if you end up getting stuck on something and are 100% sure you followed the directions in the book. I use Unreal for 3D games, so I have not yet gone through the chapters of this book for 3D games. I wouldn't expect a drastic drop in quality, but for the purposes of this review I can't give any insight on the 3D chapters.

A very frustrating experience
Format: Paperback
I very rarely write reviews for things, but I felt compelled to do so for this book based on my experience. I had an amazing experience with this book for the first 3 chapters. There were some errors and things just plain missing in those chapters, but I was able to debug and provide solutions for those things. For example, some lines of code were omitted and score keeping was completely left out from Chapter 3. I have since found that errata is helpfully published on the GitHub repository. Overall I had a lot of fun working through the first 3 chapters. Chapter 4 is where I decided to give up and move on to other resources. I found the lack of guidance on level design and truly understanding and using tile maps and tile sets downright frustrating. Perhaps this chapter would be more approachable if I had prior game development experience. The author very much glosses over level design and it went from a poor explanation of the concept to just "now design your level". Referencing the finished project from the GitHub repository did not provide much assistance either. If you are new to game development, I think the first 3 chapters are a helpful introduction and they have definitely furthered my interest in both Godot and game development. However, I had to bail after Chapter 4 in search of better material. Perhaps I will return to the book after learning more from other resources.
