Description

Eye-catching red flowers shaped like trumpets cover Azalea Stewartstonian in April-May. The flowers sit against dark green foliage which is evergreen and provides the garden with structure year-round. Growing to just over 1 metre in height and spread in 20 years, Azalea Stewartstonian is an ideal specimen for a pot or within a border.

Azaleas are part of the Rhododendron family and like acidic soil. If your garden doesn't have suitable soil, ''Stewartstonian' can still be grown in a container with ericaceous compost.

Planting Steps

Aftercare Advice

Rhododendron and Azalea are generally low maintenance however they will require a good watering regime for a couple of years whilst they establish. Water well and regularly through spring and summer, increasing in hot or dry weather. If planting in autumn, you may only need to water a little. Rainwater is preferred but tap water can also be used. It is advisable to keep the area free of competing weeds and grass during this period.

Rhododendron and Azalea are acid-loving plants so when grown in acidic soil are unlikely to need additional feeding. However, if the acidity of your soil is low, iron, manganese and magnesium treatments can be added to prevent browning and yellowing of the leaves. Potted Rhododendron and Azalea may also benefit from a slow-release granular fertiliser which provides an on-going support of nutrients.

Most Rhododendron and Azalea belong to RHS 'Pruning Group 8,' meaning they require minimal pruning. After they finish flowering, you should remove any deadheads and address any diseased or damaged branches, but otherwise, they should be left unpruned.
