Description: Azalea ‘Luci’ is a striking, evergreen shrub featuring a profusion of vivid red, semi-double flowers that bloom in spring. Its deep green foliage provides a lush backdrop to the fiery blooms, making it an eye-catching addition to any garden. This compact and dense-growing variety thrives in Melbourne’s climate, preferring well-drained, acidic soil and a shaded to partially shaded position. ‘Luci’ is perfect for garden borders, mass planting, containers, and shaded garden beds where its bold colour can shine. Regular pruning after flowering promotes a bushy habit and ensures a spectacular floral display in the following season.
