Azalea sp.

Azalea

Plant Type:

SHRUBS

Azalea sp. white (ex: Joyce Fingerhut) – Vibrant and a strong grower, this handsome shrub flaunts extra-large pure white single flowers en masse decorating the rounded mound in June. The handsome shrub is cloaked in glossy dark green foliage. Joyce insisted this beauty should be in the trade. Now we agree. And, according to Joyce, it flowers for just about the full month of June. She resides in zone 7. We're thinking it will ibe n all likelihood bud hardy in USDA zone 6b but possibly even colder. Fertile draining ground in part shade. Established potted Azalea from cutting.
