Deciduous azalea (Rhododendron 'Snow White') is an evergreen shrub that produces abundant clusters of single white armchair-shaped blooms in the spring. It grows well in full sun to partial shade and can reach up to 4 feet tall. This azalea prefers moist, well-draining, acidic soils and will do best in areas sheltered from strong winds. With glossy dark-green foliage and fragrant blossoms, it will bring a few of the beauty of spring to any garden. Snow White azaleas are low maintenance and are resistant to heat and drought, making them ideal for areas with hot summers and mild winters.
