North Florida Growing Note

Red Formosa is a large-growing Southern Indica azalea suited to warm Southern landscapes. In North Florida, give it room to spread and keep the soil evenly moist, especially during establishment and hot weather. Azaleas prefer acidic, well-drained soil; prune soon after flowering so you don’t remove next season’s flower buds.
