Description
A sight to behold in spring and fall, the Amelia Rose Azalea produces an abundance of the most beautiful rose-like double flowers with bright lavender petals. In our gardens, Amelia Rose puts on a stunning floral display in spring with a lighter rebloom in fall! Dark green foliage is the perfect backdrop to the bright flowers. If you love azaleas, Amelia Rose is a must in your garden!
Landscape & Garden Uses
Growing 4 to 5 feet tall and equally as wide, the Amelia Rose Azalea is ideal for use as an accent or specimen, in groupings, mass plantings, or low hedges in partially shaded landscape borders, woodland gardens, and home foundation plantings. Butterflies love the flowers, and blooming branches can be cut for use to create stunning indoor floral arrangements. A fine addition to purple theme gardens, azalea gardens, cottage gardens and cut flower gardens.
Suggested Spacing: 3 feet apart for solid hedges; 7 feet apart for space between plants

Note: For our customers who live and garden north of USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 6b, where this Azalea variety is not winter hardy outdoors, you can enjoy growing it in containers that can be moved indoors during winter and placed back outside when temperatures warm up in spring.
Growing Preferences
Evergreen Azaleas are easy to grow when planted right and in the right spot. They prefer a moist but well-drained and acidic soil that is rich in organic matter and part sun. Constantly soggy or wet soil is problematic, so make sure to plant in a well-drained site. Morning sun with afternoon shade or filtered sun is ideal. Moderate drought tolerance when established.
