Rosebud Azalea
Rosebud Azalea is a beautiful deciduous flowering shrub cherished for its unique, rose-like flower buds and compact, upright habit. The blooms open in mid-spring, revealing clusters of soft pink, ruffled flowers that look like miniature roses, creating an elegant display in the garden.
