Deciduous Azalea 'Weston's Millenium' 3 Gallon

Rhododendron hybrid

'Weston's Millenium' features pink flowers in May to June after the leaves flush out. The plant offers a tall, upright yet rounded habit with green foliage throughout the growing season. Azaleas prefer protected spots with some shade plus uniformly moist but well-drained 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. Wrap in burlap or spray with Wilt-stop to protect from winter desiccation.
