Azalea 'Flamingo'

Common Name: Azalea ‘Flamingo’

Description:
Azalea ‘Flamingo’ is a stunning, compact evergreen shrub known for its abundant display of soft pink, ruffled flowers that bloom in mid to late spring. Its delicate yet vibrant blossoms contrast beautifully against its rich, dark green foliage, creating a striking focal point in any garden. This variety thrives in Melbourne’s climate, preferring well-drained, acidic soil and a sheltered position with morning sun and afternoon shade. ‘Flamingo’ is ideal for garden beds, borders, pots, and shaded areas where its soft pastel tones add elegance and charm. Regular pruning after flowering helps maintain its shape and encourages a fuller display the following season.
