Description

Azalea bush is a relatively low-maintenance that needs to be watered every 3-4 weeks and more frequently during the dry seasons. It can either be evergreen or deciduous and its roots need oxygen in order for it to flourish.

Azalea bush can be grown into a small tree and used as an ornamental plant. Best to prune right after its flowers start blooming to help minimise the number of flowers.
