Gumpo Pink Azalea Offers Compact Beauty and Reliable Performance
Beautiful Low Growing Color With Soft Pink Spring Blooms
A Petite Shrub With Big Visual Impact
Gumpo Pink Azalea is a dwarf evergreen azalea known for its low spreading habit and abundant soft pink flowers. It grows wider than it does tall, forming a dense, mounded shrub that works especially well in smaller spaces. During spring, the plant becomes covered in delicate pink blooms that contrast beautifully with its dark green foliage, while the evergreen leaves provide structure throughout the year.
A Garden Favorite for Good Reason
Gardeners love Gumpo Pink Azalea because of its compact size, dependable flowering, and versatility in the landscape. It’s often a popular choice for:
- Property & home borders
- Foundation plantings
- Rock gardens
- Uniform color mass plantings
We’ve found that its ability to stay low and tidy with minimal work makes it appealing to homeowners who want a polished look without excessive maintenance.
Gumpo Pink Azalea typically reaches 2-3 feet tall and wide at maturity. Its spring blooms are a soft, clear pink and appear in heavy clusters that often cover much of the plant. The foliage is smaller than that of standard azaleas, contributing to its refined appearance and dense growth habit. This variety is valued for its natural shape, which rarely requires heavy pruning to maintain.
Simple Care for Long Term Success
Gumpo Pink Azalea prefers acidic, well drained soil that is rich in organic matter. It grows best in partial sun, especially with morning sunlight and some protection from intense afternoon heat. This variety thrives best in USDA growing zones 7 through 9. Regular watering of 1-2 inches every few days (except after rain) while it establishes is important. Once mature, these flowering shrubs only need watering when the soil is dr to the touch.
- Gardener Pro Tip: The best time to plant is in spring or fall when temperatures are mild, allowing roots to establish before extreme heat or cold.
