Frequently Asked Questions

Is Sweet Reward Coral Azalea evergreen?
  • No, Sweet Reward® Coral Azalea is deciduous. It drops its leaves in fall and leafs out again in spring, around the time the fragrant coral flowers open. That deciduous habit is part of what makes it hardier in cold winters than many evergreen azaleas.

How is Sweet Reward Coral different from Sweet Reward Pink?
  • Both come from the same fragrant, deciduous Sweet Reward® series and share the same size and hardiness. Sweet Reward® Coral Azalea blooms in warm coral, salmon and sherbet orange, while Sweet Reward® Pink Azalea carries pink flowers. They bloom together in spring, so the two mix well in one bed.

When should I prune Sweet Reward Coral Azalea?
  • Prune Sweet Reward® Coral Azalea right after it finishes blooming in spring, and only if it needs shaping. It sets next year's flower buds on old wood over the summer, so pruning in late summer, fall or winter removes the coming spring's flowers.

What soil does Sweet Reward Coral Azalea need?
  • Sweet Reward® Coral Azalea needs acidic soil that drains well and holds some moisture. Work compost or other organic matter into the planting hole, avoid low spots where water sits, and set the root ball slightly high in heavy clay. Mulch helps keep the shallow roots cool and evenly moist.
