Huge, beautiful flowers and lots of them are the hallmarks of the Perfecto Mundo Epic Pink Azalea. The bright, hot pink flowers feature dark pink flecks for added dimension. This reblooming Azalea boasts striking flowers in the spring and again during the late summer or early fall. The dark green foliage contrasts the brilliant flowers. As an evergreen, this shrub retains its leaves throughout the year, so it always provides vibrant visual interest.
Azaleas can provide a burst of color to a flower garden, border, mass planting, hedge, or foundation planting. Feature this shrub in a container to dress up a porch or display the gigantic blooms in a highly visible area. The Perfecto Mundo Epic Pink Azalea is a perennial in USDA growing zones 6b through 9. We recommend covering the plant to protect it from inclement winter weather if that could be a possibility.
Perfecto Mundo® Epic Pink™ Azalea Care
Azaleas do best with full to part sun. A spot that receives partial sunlight throughout the day will help the plant push out more abundant blooms. The Perfecto Mundo Epic Pink Azalea prefers damp soil, but it does not like wet feet, so make sure the plant has good drainage. Place mulch around the base of the plant to retain moisture.
Amend the soil with organic compost or manure when planting. Advanced gardeners may want to test the soil and select an appropriate fertilizer to promote growth. Soil should be slightly acidic and promote drainage. Use a balanced slow-release fertilizer to support new growth and blooms. After the first round of blooms dies back, trim back overgrowth to encourage new growth and even more blooms during the second bloom cycle.
Perfecto Mundo® Epic Pink™ Azalea Spacing
This shrub should grow to 3 to 4 feet tall and 3 to 5 feet wide. If using this Azalea to create a low hedge or foundation planting, shrubs can be placed 3 to 5 feet center to center. Placing the plants close together will ensure a continuous wall of greenery once the plants are mature. If you want to feature empty space around each shrub, leave at least 6 feet from the shrub's center. Select a large container with at least a 16-inch diameter if you intend to grow this Azalea in a pot.

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.
