Azaleas are known for striking blooms, and the Perfecto Mundo Epic Coral Azalea does not disappoint. This beauty produces large pinkish-orange flowers that boast lacy petaloid stamens during the spring. If that wasn’t enough, this reblooming cultivar puts on a second display of equally stunning flowers during the late summer or early fall. The Perfecto Mundo Epic Coral Azalea grows as a perennial in USDA growing zones 6b through 9.
The Perfecto Mundo Epic Coral Azalea is an evergreen, so it provides color and interest all year long. This shrub makes a beautiful addition to mass plantings and edging, and it can be used to create a low hedge or along a foundation. The gigantic flowers and reblooming nature make the Perfecto Mundo Epic Coral Azalea a perfect specimen planting. This shrub will need protection from winter weather, so we suggest being prepared to cover the plant if grown in areas that could possibly receive inclement weather.
Perfecto Mundo Epic Coral Azalea Care
Plant this flowering shrub in part to full sun. Azaleas prefer filtered sun throughout the day, and this will typically help the plant produce a larger yield of flowers. A shallow root system means this plant needs a regular water schedule to prevent the roots from drying out. While Azaleas like damp conditions, they do not like soggy soil, so wait until the top couple of inches of soil feel dry before giving the plant water. Apply a layer of mulch around the base of the plant to hold in the moisture longer.
The soil should be acidic with high organic content. Amend the soil with manure or organic compost when planting. Feed the plant in the spring using slow-release plant food. Use a balanced fertilizer with a ratio of 15-15-15 or something similar. Prune the plant after the spring bloom to promote more growth during the summer, and a more abundant rebloom later in the season.
Perfecto Mundo Epic Coral Azalea Spacing
Once mature, the Perfecto Mundo Epic Coral Azalea will be 3 to 4 feet tall and 3 to 5 feet wide. This plant can be spaced as close as 3 to 5 feet center to center from other plants to create a hedge. Give the plants a more generous amount of space if used as a specimen or focal point. Grow the Perfecto Mundo Epic Coral Azalea in a container so you can place the plant in a highly visible area when the shrub is in bloom.

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).

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.
