The Bloom-A-Thon White Azalea from Proven Winners ColorChoice is a reblooming shrub that sets it apart from other typical azaleas. The plant blooms in the spring around April for 4 to 6 weeks. Then blooms again in the summer and fall for another 12 to 16 weeks until the first frost. The foliage is semi-evergreen, which means the leaves on the outer edge of the branches stay green year round, but the leaves located in the inner part of the shrub drop in the winter.
This shrub is not only beautiful for more of the year, it is also disease and heat resistant. Even the hottest summer days do not prevent this beautiful plant from producing large white flowers.
Use these small shrubs in mass plantings for a terrific show for over 20 weeks. We also like planting these bushes in garden planters due to their year-round color of green foliage and white flowers. We’ve also seen these planted as short border hedges, which are great around landscaping or garden paths.
Bloom-A-Thon White Azalea Care
Plant these shrubs in an area that receives at least 4-6 hours of sunlight a day. However, these plants can handle full sunlight even on the hottest southern summer days. If you live in zone 7, avoid late season plantings because the azaleas need time to prepare for winter.
Apply a layer of mulch 2-3 inches deep around the base of the plant to help retain moisture and protect the shallow roots from harsh weather conditions. Do not fertilize these plants after mid-July.
Pruning Bloom-A-Thon White Azaleas should be done each year after the spring bloom has started to fade. This will encourage the plant to produce new growth, which will include another round of blooms that will last late into fall.
Bloom-A-Thon White Azalea Spacing
Plant these shrubs at least 3 feet apart, center on center. If you are creating a short garden path border you can plant 30 inches apart, center on center, for a flowering evergreen hedge.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.
The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
