Japanese azalea 'Kirin'

DESCRIPTION

The Japanese azaleas adorn countless gardens and parks. They owe their popularity to the charm of their countless flowers, which are enthroned above the dense foliage in a variety of colors at flowering time. They transform the entire ornamental shrub into a sea of flowers. A compact growth and often low growth heights also make pruning of many varieties unnecessary, which significantly reduces the maintenance effort.
