Rhododendron 'Daviesii'
deciduous azalea
Highly fragrant, creamy white, funnel shaped blooms with a yellow flare in May and June and small, mid green leaves. This compact, deciduous azalea is perfect for a large container filled with moist, but well-drained, ericaceous compost. To appreciate its delightful fragrance place containers in a sunny spot close to an entrance or path.
