Rhododendrons are renowned for their display of showy flowers, and Rhododendron Azurro is no different. Decorating the shrub from late spring to early summer, Azurro blooms are vivid in colour. The vibrant purple petals feature frilled edges, and the violet hues are perfectly complemented by a dark red blotch on each flower. As the blooms grow in clusters, they produce a striking effect and are highly attractive to bees, butterflies, and other pollinators. Rhododendron Azurro is an undemanding shrub that is hardy and easy to grow. It prefers a sheltered spot in partial shade and thrives in slightly acidic, moist but well-draining soil. Clay, loamy, or sandy soil types are perfect. Use ericaceous compost for planting rhododendrons in pots and containers. Please Note: When purchasing plants, please consider that each live item is unique and may therefore differ from the images shown, which are for illustration purposes only. The plant will be supplied in a growers pot. Depending on season, some plants may be pruned back to encourage growth and deciduous plants may arrive without leaves.
