Azalea Hilda Niblett

Cover the front of garden beds with full-sized multicolor flowers and a low spreading evergreen habit. Hilda Niblett Azalea produces generous four-inch blooms in shades of white, pink, and peach. It flowers earlier than many azaleas and may continue into summer, while its ground-hugging growth makes it an excellent choice for underplanting taller shrubs or softening bed edges.
