Rhododendron Pure White Julia ('Homlea') (Encore Azalea Series)
twice flowering evergreen azalea
The first flush of flowers appear in abundance in late spring and early summer, but after a short hiatus, new buds start to form and these open from midsummer to early autumn. Offering a much longer season of interest than many other forms, this new repeat-flowering azalea is ideal for the patio or border.
