The Azalea, Formosa, Azalea indica 'Formosa', is a spring blooming plant with evergreen foliage. This Azalea has an upright growth habit and is the best choice for a high light area. The Formosa has beautiful magenta deep colored flowers that grow profusely during the spring. It can get up to 6 8 feet in height and does best on acidic soils. Plant in acid soil in filtered sunlight or light shade, although plants tolerate full sun in cool summer areas. Use soil rich in organic matter, which retains water and drains quickly. Never prune after mid summer because those branches produce the next season's flowers.
