Azalea 'Hino-White' (white)

This compact, mounding shrub features a dense, evergreen habit that makes it an excellent choice for borders, foundation plantings, or woodland gardens. It thrives in USDA Zones 6-9, preferring temperatures between 60-75°F and partial shade to filtered sunlight. Its soil requirements include rich, acidic, and well-draining conditions for optimal health. In mid to late spring, the plant bursts into a profusion of pure white, funnel-shaped flowers that contrast beautifully with its dark green foliage. Although it does not exhibit significant fall color, its evergreen nature ensures year-round interest. It matures to a height of 2-3 feet with an equal spread and is generally deer-resistant, making it a low-maintenance addition to landscapes. This plant also works particularly well in naturalized areas or container gardens, requiring regular moisture for best performance.
