A reblooming azalea, Rhododendron PERFECTO MUNDO® Orange Azalea sets large clusters of brilliant dark orange to red flowers, not for mere weeks, but for months. This azalea blooms on old wood in spring; and later, after a brief rest, it blooms on new wood in midsummer, continuing until autumn frosts. A light pruning after the spring bloom will encourage new growth and new blooms.
Award-winning plant breeder Dr. Tom Ranney of NCSU created this revolutionary series. Semievergreen azaleas with a neat, dense, mounded habit of handsome dark green foliage and lacebug resistance that bloom in spring, late summer, and right into fallwhat more could you want?
