Delaware Valley White Azalea (Rhododendron 'Delaware Valley White') is a lovely addition to any landscape. For one, white flowers are uncommon but serve as fine complements to flowers and foliage of all colors. Delaware Valley White produces pretty azalea white flowers about 2 to 4 inches in size each spring. They rise above evergreen foliage. For a showstopper, year-round hedge, plant several of the shrubs along a garden border, sidewalk, driveway or before low structures.
Growing to about 3 or 4 feet tall and wide, Delaware Valley White Azalea is a perfect low hedge or border. It also can stand out in the center of a garden bed or against a fence or house. Butterflies are drawn to the big white flower clusters and the lush green foliage shines in the garden through winter. Each flower has about 10 long stamens, adding to the delicate beauty of the white blooms. The shrub should thrive in part sun in zones 5 through 8.
Delaware Valley White Azalea Care
Azaleas like fertile, well-draining soil that is acidic (about 5.5 to 6.2 pH). Although touted as a shade-loving shrub, Delaware Valley White Azalea needs some sunlight to flower well. So, morning sun or dappled shade from a tree work best. The shrub needs consistent, nearly constant moisture. Add a layer of organic mulch (such as bark or pine needles) around the plant to keep moisture from evaporating. Prune your azalea in late spring after it is done flowering.
Delaware Valley White Azalea Spacing
For a gorgeous white and green hedge, place your group of Delaware Valley White Azalea nearly 3 feet apart to account for future size.

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.

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.
