Azalea mucronulatum 'Cornell Pink'

Azalea mucronulatum ‘Cornell Pink’ One of the earliest azaleas to bloom, ‘Cornell Pink’ puts on a stunning spring display in early April when vibrant pink flowers cover the bare branches before the foliage emerges. The blooms create a striking effect in the landscape and provide an important early nectar source for pollinators. After flowering, deep green foliage fills in to form a dense, attractive shrub that provides season-long structure and texture. Its compact habit makes it a beautiful choice for foundation plantings, woodland gardens, borders, or mass plantings where its early color can truly shine. Plant Details: Height: 4–8 feet Spread: 4–8 feet Light: Full sun to part shade Zones: 4–7 Features: Very early spring blooms Bright pink flowers on leafless stems Compact, landscape-friendly habit Attracts early pollinators Excellent for borders and mass plantings Thrives in rich, well-drained acidic soil
