Azalea Gumpo (Rhododendron 'Gumpo') is a popular and compact evergreen shrub, highly valued for its profusion of beautiful and delicate blooms. This Azalea variety is a member of the Rhododendron genus and is known for its versatility in garden landscapes and container plantings. Soft pink flowers.
Azalea Gumpo thrives in well-draining, acidic soil with good moisture retention. It prefers partial shade to protect its delicate blooms from harsh sun exposure. Regular watering is essential, especially during dry periods, to maintain the plant's health and vigor. Applying a layer of mulch around the base of the shrub helps conserve soil moisture and regulates temperature. Pruning should be done after flowering to maintain the desired shape and encourage new growth.
Azalea Gumpo is an evergreen shrub that typically grows up to 2 to 3 feet (60 to 90 cm) in height and width. Its compact and dense form makes it an excellent choice for small gardens or containers. Hardy in USDA zones 6 to 9.
Like other members of the Rhododendron genus, is considered toxic to humans and pets if ingested. Its leaves and nectar contain toxic substances that can cause mild to severe gastrointestinal discomfort. Caution should be exercised in households with children or pets to prevent ingestion.
