Every gardener loves azaleas and having watched this red beauty for many years in our own gardens, we can offer it as a terrific addition to your home garden. Blooms hold very well- some for a week or more, depending on weather and enviromental conditons. Loves acidic soils and once established, is very confortable with dry conditions. In fact, we have had them in raised beds, planted among mature pines, for over 30 years and they have adapted well. Beautiful in mass plantings, as foundation plants for your home, or as a color accent in you spring garden.
