Origin

Via Latin from Greek, from rhodon 'rose' + dendron 'tree'.

Rhododendron means ‘rose tree’ from Greek rhodos ‘rose’, also found in the name Rhoda, and dendron ‘tree’ found in many plant names as well as in dendrochronology (early 20th century), the science of dating things through tree rings. Rhododendron was originally used of the rose-flowered oleander which explains its name, and only transferred to the modern plant in the mid 17th century.
