North Florida Growing Note

Choose a location with good drainage and protection from intense afternoon sun. Add organic matter where needed and mulch around the root zone to help retain moisture, keeping mulch away from the stems.

Avoid planting too deeply or in areas that stay waterlogged. Seasonal leaf loss is normal for this deciduous azalea.

Prune lightly immediately after flowering if shaping is needed. Avoid late-season pruning, which can remove buds for the following spring.
