Deciduous Azalea Exbury 'Molalla Red' 3 Gallon

Rhododendron 'Molalla Red'

This deciduous azalea is an abundant spring bloomer covered in clusters of 8 red blossoms in June. Foliage starts glossy green turning a deep red for fall interest. Azaleas prefer protected spots with some shade plus well-drained, amended, acidic soil. Water well after planting; maintain 1" of water once a week the first year. Prune in spring immediately after flowering to control size, and remove stray shoots or damaged limbs anytime. Fertilize in early spring, mid-summer and fall with an acidic fertilizer. Follow label instructions. Mulch 2" to suppress weeds, retain moisture and protect against extremes of soil temperature.
