Reblooming Azaleas for Shade to Part Shade

New Plant
Azaleas Bloom-A-Thon
Spring is here and lets think about adding some new plants to our landscape. A new plant for 20l2 that is creating lots of excitement is the Bloom-A-Thon Series of re-blooming azaleas just introduced by Proven Winners ColorChoice.
These shrubs are born and bred for multiple seasons of interest of flowers, foliage, bark, seed heads and other attributes.
Bloom-A-Thons may be twice as nice as other azaleas!  Why settle for just a week or two of flowers when you can enjoy up to five months of bloom?  Large flowers
appear in April, then rebloom in early July, continuing through fall until a hard frost.  Even high summer temperatures don’t stop this beauty from producing loads of late summer and fall flowers.  Flowering lasts for 4-6 weeks in the spring and then another 12-16 weeks in the summer and fall.   The glossy evergreen foliage is disease resistant and maintains excellent color year-round. The Bloom-A-Thon re-blooming azaleas are available in four colors: red, white (dwarf evergreen shrub), lavender and double pink.  They grow best under conditions of light shade, adequate moisture, and fertile well-drained amended soil.  Partial sun to dappled shade is ideal and eliminates flower scorch in full summer sun.  Though the plants produce an abundance of large flowers, they are self-cleaning which reduces disease and increases their beauty in the landscape.  Bloom-A-Thons are beautiful in borders or
clusters, and the smaller growing varieties are for perfect for container gardens.
We are excited at Johnson Nursery & Garden Center to offer these new evergreen flowering shrubs to you.  For all you spring gardening plants and supplies, we invite you to visit us at Johnson Nursery and Garden Center where “we are always making beautiful gardens come alive”!
