The first flush of flowers appear in abundance in late spring and early summer, but after a short hiatus, new buds start to form and these open from midsummer to early autumn. Offering a much longer season of interest than many other forms, this new repeat-flowering azalea is ideal for the patio or border. - Garden care: Avoid planting too deeply. Apply a generous 5-7cm (2-3in) mulch of leaf mould around the base of the plant each spring.
- Humans/Pets: Harmful if eaten
