Pink Double Bloom-A-Thon® Azalea

The Pink Double Bloom-A-Thon® Azalea has huge double blooms like carnations in a brilliant shade of bright light pink. With many extra petals filling the center it really delivers a color slam-dunk, standing out in your beds and bringing your garden to life. After a month of blooms in April to May, it is back again by July with scattered blooms, increasing into a bold second display from September up to the first hard frost. It grows vigorously into an upright dome of evergreen leaves, at least 4 feet tall, and almost as wide. Grow it in beds, borders, under trees and in open woodlands, as well as in planters and tubs.

• Big fully-double pink blooms like carnations
• Flowers in spring and then repeats through summer and fall
• A good choice for shady areas
• Bred for reliability in zone 6
• Takes heat and humidity well

The Pink Double Bloom-A-Thon® Azalea will grow and stay semi-evergreen even in zone 6, and it is fully hardy in all warmer zones, growing well in heat and humidity. It will grow in partial shade as well as in dappled shade or the shade against a north-facing wall. The soil should be rich, moist, and well-drained, with a pH of 5.5 (acid) or less. If you don’t have suitable soil grow it in a pot, using soil for acid-loving plants.
