In a perfect world, azaleas would bloom for months instead of just weeks and have big, full flowers with pure and true colors. That's exactly what Perfecto Mundo® azaleas do. Perfecto Mundo Pink Carpet® azalea gives you a new way to use azaleas in your garden. It has a dwarf, wider-than-tall habit, perfect for use as a ground cover or mass planting. Its lovely light pink flowers arrive in droves in the spring. It takes a break in early summer to grow flower buds on new growth and it blooms with gusto in late summer and keeps providing a show until fall. It makes an ideal front of the border companion to perennials and annuals.

A note on hardiness: Perfecto Mundo Pink carpet azalea is hardy to USDA zone 6b, and is better suited to milder coastal areas of zone 6b than harsh Midwestern sites. If you wish to plant it in zone 6b, select a protected location and mulch well. Do not fertilize after mid-July in these areas. If you do wish to fertilize, do so in early spring, just as the new growth begins to emerge, and then again after the spring bloom is complete.
