Description
Azalea – Pink And Sweet is a compact, broadleaf deciduous shrub that puts on a fragrant floral show in late spring. Its trumpet-shaped, soft pink blooms—flushed with hints of yellow—appear before the foliage, creating a dramatic and colorful impact. With a tidy, rounded form and glossy green leaves that turn red in fall, this azalea delivers multi-season appeal and is perfect for borders, woodland gardens, or foundation plantings.
Well-suited to Massachusetts gardens, Azalea – Pink And Sweet thrives in rich, acidic, well-draining soil and grows best in partial shade. Its slow growth and compact size (4’ tall and wide) make it easy to care for and a charming companion to other shade-loving plants. Add peat moss at planting for best results, and enjoy this variety’s fragrant spring blooms and vibrant fall foliage year after year.
