My senior brain can't recall the names of plants I've grown for 40 years. Gotta write it down. Thanks.

Isn't it a Rhododendron?

It's a rhodie but a different kind whose name I forgot and it's really bugging me.

YES!!! Thank you!!! Now I'll make a note and stick it on my fridge. I don't know why I haven't been able to recall PJM. The leaves tell me what the temperature is every morning outside my bedroom window. Curled, it's freezing. Flat, it's warmer. Spring is early here and the buds are swelling already.

There are lots of PJMs. When it flowers maybe someone can help you with a likely name.

Suggested Mnemonic. You check the leaves when you're in your PJs in the Morning.
