Azalea ‘Ultimate White‘ is a stunning white variation of ‘Alphonse Anderson‘. It is a hardy, vigorous-growing Azalea that bears a profusion of large, single white flowers in spring, with additional spot flowers appearing in autumn. It is known for its stronger and taller growth compared to ‘Alba Magnifica‘.

Cultural

Maintenance:
Prune after flowering to maintain compact shape. Apply an Azalea-specific fertiliser in spring and late summer. Will benefit from a yearly application of mulch.

Susceptible to insect attacks, such as aphids and mite- treat accordingly.
