Comments: Free flowering deciduous azalea with fragrant, yellow flowers appearing mid-season. 10-year growth is 5-6 feet and will reach 12 feet or more in 40 years. More stoloniferous then many other deciduous azaleas creating a thick grove as it ages. Though hybridized on the east coast many years ago has finally made it the west!
