This old southern classic George Tabor Azalea Shrub (sometimes spelled Taber) will stand out in your landscape. Not only with its decorative blooms but also with its light perfume aroma that has a way of relaxing the senses and brightening any mood. George Taber is a larger azalea variety. When in full bloom, the George Taber Azalea displays a breathtaking vivid magenta color that is sure to catch the eye of any passersby! The George Taber Azalea produces clusters of showy, profuse pink blooms during the early spring growing season. Its blooms are so plentiful and large that they hide the dark green foliage, making it a favorite landscape shrub in the south during the summer months. Fun fact: This evergreen southern azalea has a botanical name that originates from the person who discovered it, George L Taber. His last name is commonly misspelled as George Taber and so that became the common name.Does not ship to AK, AZ, CA, or HI

- The George Taber features masses of showy single blooms that are single light-orchid and white variegated with white near the ends of the petals. This beautiful evergreen azalea is a premier shrub with deep green leaves.
- George Taber Azaleas are a type of evergreen Rhododendron. This means that they do not lose their leaves in the winter, and will instead keep their colors all year round. This means that they make for great privacy shrubs, as theyll remain full and leafy for every season of the year.
- If you are mass planting, the azalea should be spaced about 4 to 6 ft. apart. Be sure to regularly water the first year of planting to establish a strong root system to be able to grow and thrive. These shrubs can grow up to 6 ft. wide, so theyll fill into one another and provide a robust privacy shrub.
- While they dont necessarily require pruning, you can do so by trimming back any dead branches about 4 or 5 in. from the stem. This will encourage new growth in the areas that were cut away. The best time to prune a George Tabor is in the late spring, after theyve finished blooming.
- At full size, a George Tabor Azalea will mature to an average height of 6 to 8 ft. tall and an average width of 6 to 8 ft. wide. Its full size will depend on the climate and other environmental factors.
- The George Taber Azalea has a rounded, upright shrubby growth habit. Grow this azalea southern indica in USDA plant hardiness zones 7-10. Has slight cold hardiness but grows best in the southern United States. It is sun and heat tolerant.
