Japanese Azalea 'Kermesina Rosé'

Product information "Japanese Azalea 'Kermesina Rosé'"

This Japanese azalea with its lively play of colours is really something very special. Its numerous buds open to star-like flowers with bright pink centres and pure white edges. There is also a pretty red marking in the middle of the flower. With a diameter of 3 to 3.5 cm, the flowers are real eye-catchers. Add to that the prolific flowering of 'Kermesina Rosé' – from the end of May the entire plant turns into a pink-white sea of flowers.
 
All year round

But even after flowering, the Rhododendron obtusum 'Kermesina Rosé' still deserves a place in the garden bed. It has a dense, compact habit and its glossy foliage shines in a fresh green colour all year round. Especially in the winter it provides welcome splashes of colour.
 
Undemanding – except for the soil

You do not need to have a green thumb for Japanese azaleas. They thrive easily in the sun or partial shade; they bloom very rich and do not need to be pruned. The only requirement they have is the soil: it must be rich in humus and acidic (pH 4.5 to 5.5)! Use peat or rhododendron soil when getting the planting hole ready.
 
A highlight in containers

With its striking flowering, slow, compact growth and good frost hardiness, 'Kermesina Rosé' is also a valuable and durable container plant for terraces, courtyards or entrance areas. Here too, it is best to use rhododendron soil and ensure even soil moisture.
