The Lemon Lights Azalea is a large, flowering shrub that puts on a stunning display during the spring. Large, trumpet-shaped blooms are a bold yellow color and grow in clusters. The fragrant flowers emerge before the foliage, but the green leaves fill in when flowering is complete. The foliage turns purple during the fall before dropping in the winter.

As a native plant, Lemon Lights is easy to maintain. Butterflies and hummingbirds are drawn to the beautiful flowers. This shrub has a rounded form and reaches 4 to 5 feet tall. Use this plant to conceal a foundation wall, create a low hedge, or adorn a garden bed. The hardy Lemon Lights Azalea is a perennial in USDA zones 4 through 8.

Lemon Lights Azalea Care

The Lemon Lights Azalea needs full to partial sunlight. The ideal spot will receive at least 4 to 6 hours of daylight. Azaleas prefer soil that is rich, slightly acidic, and well drained. This shrub has average water needs and should be watered regularly during the growing season. Feed the plant to keep it healthy and encourage lots of flowers. Use a balanced fertilizer or a product formulated for acid-loving plants, like Azaleas. Feed during the spring and early summer.

Shape the plant as needed after the flowers fade. The Lemon Lights Azalea is cold hardy and does not generally need special care during the winter.

Lemon Lights Azalea Spacing

The Lemon Lights Azalea has a woody structure and an upright growth habit. Mature plants reach 4 to 5 feet tall and 3 to 4 feet wide. Leave 3 feet of space between shrubs during planting to create a continuous hedge or mass planting.

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.

Guarantee and Warranty

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.
