Sweet Azalea is a deciduous shrub that produces clusters of fragrant white flowers with contrasting red stamens in early summer. With leaves that turn shades of bronze, red, and purple in the fall, it makes a wonderful addition to a shrub border or woodland garden.

Grown non-GMO and free of harmful neonicotinoids just for your area, Sweet Azalea for sun/part-shade will:

• Add year-round interest to your garden with loosely-branched stems, glossy foliage, fragrant blooms, and fall color.
• Support other wildlife species including birds, butterflies, moths, and bees.
• Never need chemicals and require less water once established.

Sweet Azalea has a shallow, fibrous root system and will do best when planted in an area with evenly moist but well-drained conditions and mulched. Sweet Azalea, also known as Rhododendron arborescens (arborescens means "tree-like"), can occasionally grow up to 20’ in height and spread. Be sure to select a planting site that will accommodate its mature size.
