LEMON LIGHTS DECIDUOUS AZALEA
Azalea exbury 'Lemon Lights' is commonly referred to as Lemon Lights Azalea or Lemon Lights Rhododendron. This is an outstanding, cold hardy, deciduous Azalea that features deep evergreen foliage and fragrant, bi-color yellow and cream trumpet-shaped flowers that appear before the foliage and remain for several weeks in spring. Foliage matures to an attractive purple shade in fall.
Lemon Lights Azalea thrives in full to partial sun in rich, humusy, evenly moist, well-drained soils. It is ideal for tight garden spots as its spread is only 3-4 feet. It is ideal in mixed borders and foundation plantings. A true hummingbird favorite and ours too!

To help this plant settle in and thrive, we recommend these standard planting practices: Plant in full sun to partial shade - this type is significantly more sun-tolerant than evergreen azaleas. Ensure soil is acidic, well-draining, and rich in organic matter. Plant shallow - the top of the root ball should sit 1 to 2 inches above the surrounding soil level; never bury the crown. Keep soil consistently moist, especially during the first two growing seasons. Mulching: Apply 2 to 3 inches of pine needles or bark, keeping it away from the main stem. Note: This plant is deciduous; it will drop its leaves in late autumn. This is a natural dormant phase, not a sign of illness.
