R. (AZALEA) EVERGREEN 'Opal' |
||||
|
Hybridized/Introduced By: A Linwood hybrid by Albert Reid Description: Does this azalea have the most spectacular flowers that you could grow? Frankly, no; but the 2.5" dark pink double flowers and a low growing plant habit are very nice. However, 'Opal' does have two special qualities that bring it to the top of the list. It is the earliest double-flowered azalea to bloom in the spring, and more importantly, it puts on a dependable fall show right up to the hard frosts. This is not just a scattered off season bloom, but a real show. You should find a special place for 'Opal'. If you must prune, do so immediately after the spring flowers or you won't get fall bloom. | ||||
