Looking to grow a stunning red Azalea, or two?
Deciduous Azaleas offer spectacular spring flowers in the PNW, they come in a variety of colors & can be a stunning addition to any landscape. Use these specimens in most garden locations, except deep shade. They love our moist, acidic soils & can be pruned easily after bloom each spring to be kept compact. Some offer fragrance as a bonus, but all are showy in bloom & super cold hardy. Feed with an organic fertilizer in early spring & again in early summer for best growth. They can be mulched, but be careful as to not bury the crowns. Deciduous Azaleas also offer the bonus of nice fall color too, before losing their leaves for winter!
