Description

One of the best of the sun and heat-tolerant Southern Indica Azaleas, the Judge Solomon Azalea wows in spring when it produces LOADS of large, bright pink flowers that nearly cover the evergreen foliage. Grows more rapidly than other types of azaleas in a large mound 6 to 8 feet tall and wide. Its larger size makes Judge Solomon a fine selection for a colorful natural hedge or screen in landscape and woodland borders.

Landscape & Garden Uses

Growing in a large mound 6 to 8 feet tall and wide over time, the Judge Solomon Azalea is most useful as a natural hedge or in small to large groupings in landscape borders. The plants perform exceptionally well under tall pine trees. Also ideal for use as accents, corner plants or as espalier against large open walls in home foundation plantings. Lower branches can also be removed to form an attractive small evergreen tree serves well as a focal point in the landscape or large containers. A fine addition to Azalea gardens, purple theme gardens and cottage gardens.

Suggested Spacing: 5 feet apart for solid hedges; 12 feet or more apart for space between plants

Note: For our customers who live and garden North of USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 7b, where this Azalea variety is not reliably winder hardy, you can enjoy it in containers that can be moved indoors during winter and placed back outside when temperatures warm up in spring.

Growing Preferences

Southern Indica Azaleas are very easy to grow. They prefer a moist but well-drained acidic soil that is rich in organic matter and full sun to part shade. That said, we think they perform and look their best with a little shade or filtered sunlight during the hottest part of summer afternoons. Established plants have good drought tolerance.

Upon opening my Indica azalea, it was obvious care had been taken in packing. Very well packed for shipping. I have one other Indica azalea and it has grown at minimum guess of 8 feet and it is gorgeous when it blooms. Completely satisfied with my purchase. Wilson Brothers Gardens is the best.————————————————————————-We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy it for years to come! Thanks for the kind words and great review! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG

I had two separate orders , 10-1 gal azaleas then 2-1 gal azaleas 2 months later. First order was absolutely perfect. Well packaged, healthy, well shaped. The second 2 azaleas had some black spots on them and looked a little paler. but this was later in the season and the only 2 plants you had left. So, I figured they would not be as perfect as the first order. But I needed them and took a chance and they are so far surviving and waiting for that spring growth. THANK YOU.——————————————We sure hope that they thrive…keep us posted. We are so glad you are pleased with your purchase! Thanks for the great review! Beth | WBG 🙂

All is well. Nice job! Hope I can get this Judge Solomon to do well over here in South Central Texas. I know it is not in its ideal range, but I inherited at our house a 30 year stand of Judge Solomon’s that are performing well and I needed to replace one. Our heat and alkaline soils require more intervention in the care and feeding of them, but I have been able to make sufficient soil modifications to keep them somewhat happy. Not like Georgia of course. ?? Thanks again. All the best and God bless————————————Thanks for the great review! We are so glad you are pleased! Beth | WBG

We needed to fill in a spot where we had lost several azaleas. These came quickly and without any damage from transit. Already thriving.. Would definitely use Wilson Bros. plants again!————————-We are so glad you are pleased! Beth | WBG

Couldn’t ask for better service and product.—————————————–WBG Reply: Hi Griffin, Thanks so much for taking the time to provide your review of the Judge Solomon Southern Indica Azalea.
