Product description
Azalea Anne Frank is a beautiful, spring flowering, evergreen shrub which creates a stunning blanket of colour. Foliage blooms year-round, maturing from bright to dark green. During spring, clusters of small, funnel shaped, rose pink flowers bloom, covering the shrub with bright colour.
Plant Azalea Anne Frank in moist, well drained, acidic soil in a partially shaded spot. This is a great option for beds, borders and rockeries, as well as trellises and wall sides thanks to its upright habit.

Instructions
Top Tip
Prune azaleas after blooming to maintain shape and encourage better growth for the next season. Avoid cutting into old wood, as it may not regrow, and focus on removing dead or damaged branches.
How to Water
Water azaleas regularly to keep the soil consistently moist, especially during dry spells. Avoid overwatering, as they prefer well-drained soil. Water at the base, not on the leaves, and mulch to help retain moisture and reduce watering needs.
How to Plant
Choose a partially sunny or shaded spot with acidic, well-draining soil. Dig a hole slightly wider and as deep as the root ball. Place the azalea, keeping the root ball level with the soil surface. Backfill, firm gently, and water thoroughly. Mulch to retain moisture and keep roots cool.
