Description
Add fiery brilliance to your spring landscape with the Gibraltar Azalea, a striking deciduous shrub known for its vivid orange blooms and bold garden presence. In early spring, before the foliage appears, this azalea bursts into clusters of large, trumpet-shaped flowers in a rich orange hue, each bloom accented with a glowing yellow blotch. Its dramatic color and light fragrance create an unforgettable seasonal display.
The upright, mounding form of the Gibraltar Azalea makes it a versatile addition to borders, foundation plantings, and woodland gardens. Reaching 5 feet tall and wide at maturity, it's well-suited for planting under power lines or in smaller garden spaces. This variety thrives in full sun to partial sun and prefers acidic, moist, well-drained soil enriched with organic matter. Hardy in zones 4–8, this reliable shrub returns year after year with vibrant blooms and lush seasonal foliage.
