A popular shrub with enormous white balls of bloom. Plants may die to the ground in harsh winters. Bloom occurs on new wood, so plants may be pruned back close to the ground in late winter to revitalize and to encourage vigorous stem growth and best form. If not pruned back, any weakened and/or damaged stems should be removed in early spring.

This is an extremely fragrant azalea variety with silvery-pink flowers and mildew resistant deciduous foliage. The green leaves take on orange-red tones in autumn.
