When only pure white elegance will do, Azalea H.H. Hume is the answer. This stunning spring bloomer will take a bit of morning sun but will really brighten up those dappled shade parts of the garden with its bright white petals. Nicely balanced with equal height and width, H.H. Hume creates an unforgettable hedge, screen, or accent plant—after the white blooms have finished their show, the evergreen leaves provide full coverage for the remainder of the year. As with all azaleas, it prefers varying light conditions. Plant it in morning sun/afternoon shade or full dappled shade for the best leaf and flower development. Expect to stay on top of deep and regular watering during the first year as it settles in, then plan to keep the soil evenly moist. The crisp color of this shrub lends itself well to nearly any type of garden, from traditional and cottage to woodland, Zen, and modern.
