Lavender Formosa Azalea
Shipping & Returns
Shipping live plants sometimes has its challenges when dealing with inclement weather but we strive to have every single order shipped out on their scheduled shipping date. Most orders will be scheduled to ship within 1-2 weeks of ordering. Because a plant needs TLC we only ship out on Mondays-Wednesdays to ensure the plants aren’t stationed somewhere over the weekend with no water or sunlight.
After the long, dreary Winter months have passed and early Spring has arrived, if you find yourself craving color in your garden but nothing you have planted blooms until weeks or months later, what you need is some Lavender Formosa Azalea plants to at least be prepared for next year. Blooming from early Spring to midseason, these tall, upright plants featuring gorgeous lavender pink flowers with a dark pink/purple blotch on one side are large and lovely enough to catch your eye as early in the season as possible. Tolerant of full to partial sun, requiring only regular watering and incredibly hardy growing up to 8 feet tall naturally but capable of being trimmed to approximately 4 feet tall if desired, due to its size this shrub is best used in a perimeter or as an accent to color various areas of your yard.
General Care Instructions
- Watering: Water deeply after planting. Continue regular watering for the first growing season.
- Mulching: Apply 2-4 inches of mulch around the base, keeping it away from the trunk.
- Pruning: Prune during dormant season to maintain shape and remove dead branches.
- Fertilizing: Apply balanced fertilizer in early spring for optimal growth.
