Product description
A dwarf shrub with a compact, hemispherical habit, reaching about 40 cm in height and 70 cm in width at the age of 10. Young leaves are light green, later dark green, shiny, turning brown in winter. The flowers are full, carmine-pink, becoming slightly darker over time. Quite large (about 4-5 cm in diameter), very numerous gathered on the tops of the shoots. Blooms profusely and reliably in May.
Japanese azaleas prefer an acidic and permeable substrate (pH 3.5 - 4.5) - a mixture of acidic peat or composted soil, a bit of sand and bark will work well. The area around the bush should be mulched with bark. They are characterized by good frost resistance, although in open positions, exposed to strong gusts of wind, it is worth covering them for the winter (using agrotextile or branches of coniferous trees). Unlike some rhododendrons, they do well in full sun and their leaves do not burn. They can also grow in partial shade.
It looks impressive planted both individually and in a group, in the company of other heath plants - rhododendrons, azaleas, heathers. Due to its compact dimensions, it is ideal for small gardens. It is suitable for growing in pots (it can overwinter in a pot, in unheated rooms).
