Stewartstonian Azalea – 1 Gallon Pot

An oldie-but-goodie that has stood the test of time for good reasons, ‘Stewartstonian’ is a Gable Hybrid evergreen azalea developed for cold hardiness (-20F) and flower-power by the late Joseph Gable of Stewarts, Pennsylvania. In mid spring a profusion of brilliant orange-red flowers literally engulf the foliage – truly stunning! A medium-sized mounding shrub to 4 to 5 feet tall and equally as wide, it has handsome deep-green glossy leaves that turn a handsome chocolate-red color with the arrival of cold temperatures in late fall and winter. Stewartstonian Azalea is one of those evergreen flowering shrubs that puts on such a color show it will always have you, and the butterflies and hummingbirds, looking forward to spring. Excellent as a specimen, in groupings or as a colorful hedge.
