Blush Elegance Azalea is a dwarf reblooming evergreen shrub with small glossy dark leaves.  Masses of large shell pink flowers that deepen with age and have darker pink highlights and deep pink speckling bloom heavily throughout spring, sporadically in early summer, and heavily again into fall.  A very versatile plant that prefers partial sun with acidic rich, well-drained soils.  Azaleas are excellent pollination and butterfly attractors. 

MAINTENANCE NEEDS: Low maintenance.  Moderate water needs, properly drained soils is a must to avoid root rot.  Mulch helps to keep roots from drying out. Keep away from drip lines of the walnut family. Acidify soils as needed (PH range of 5 to 6.5) Southern climates with excessive humidity are more prone to powdery mildew, twig blights, and rust.  Azaleas are prone to many diseases and pest problems, but the proper environment and care should negate most of them.
