More about this plant
An Aromi hybrid deciduous azalea from Dr. Eugene Aromi in which dark red buds open to many fragrant bright yellow flowers heavily flushed dark red, each with a deep yellow blotch, so the overall effect reads as one of the best true reds among the deciduous azaleas. Plant it with good drainage and plenty of organic matter in an acid soil around pH 5.2 to 5.8, in morning sun with afternoon shade. It reaches roughly 6 feet tall by 4 feet wide in ten years and is hardy in zones 6 to 9, suiting a woodland edge or naturalized shade garden.
