Azalea ‘Anneke’

Description

Deciduous Azaleas, belonging to the genus Rhododendron from the heather family (Ericaceae), are valued for their beautiful flowers and ornamental leaves. The cultivation of large-flowered azaleas is undemanding, mainly because they are significantly more frost-resistant than Japanese azaleas and rhododendrons. They can be planted individually or in groups, they like locations near the edges of ponds or small lakes, and they also tolerate pruning and shaping. They thrive equally well when planted in containers or in flowerbeds.
In late May and June, azaleas dazzle with a profusion of flowers gathered in spectacular inflorescences, while in autumn you can admire their beautifully colored leaves shimmering in all the colors of the Polish autumn.
Produced in the Zymon Ornamental Shrubs Nursery, azaleas belong, among others, to the Knap Hill group, considered one of the most valuable. Shrubs belonging to this group are characterized by their large vigor and vitality, abundant flowering, and large flowers gathered in magnificent inflorescences.
Azalea ‘Anneke‘ is a strongly growing azalea with an upright habit and seasonal leaves. The flowers are large intensely yellow with a darker spot on the upper petal. Gathered in beautiful inflorescences. Azaleas require a sunny or semi-shaded location, acidic, humus-rich, and well-drained soil, moderately moist.
