Firebrick Fame ReBLOOM® Azalea

The Firebrick Fame™ ReBLOOM™ Azalea is smothered in blooms in April and May, with more blooms in the summer and a big reblooming in September and October. The blooms are large and semi-double, with swirling petals in the richest orange-red you have ever seen. It grows quickly into a dome-shaped evergreen shrub 3 feet tall and wide, that stays dense and bushy without trimming. Grow it in the front or middle of your beds, as an edging along paths and driveways, in woodland gardens, or in pots.

• Big semi-double blooms in glowing orange-red
• Flowers in April and May, and then again from July to October
• Blooms well even in shade
• Evergreen and cold-hardy even in zone 6
• Grow in a pot or planter if you don’t have acid soil

Bred for cold-hardiness, the Firebrick Fame™ ReBLOOM™ Azalea grows well in zone 6, and just as well in all the hotter zones. It will grow in partial or full shade, and blooms effectively there, while other repeat-blooming azaleas need more sun. The soil should be moist, rich, well-drained and acidic, with a pH of 5.5 or less. If you don’t have suitable soil, grow it in pots, using soil blended for acid-loving plants. Water regularly through dry spells, and no trimming is needed, or dead-heading, making this a very low-maintenance plant that almost never stops blooming.
