Unit price perOut of stock
A rare and lovely deciduous azalea. This species is virtually identical to the much more commonly grown and closely related R. quinquefolium which is also native to Japan. This species however, has large and flattened, clear rose-pink flowers several weeks earlier in the season, typically in early March here at the RSBG. Very slow growing but easy in a well-drained soil with light shade. Typically with a reddish margin on the five whorled leaves when they first emerge, similar to what is seen in R. quinquefolium.
