'Johanna'

Red Evergreen Azalea

Zones 6-8

 

'Johanna' is a kaempferi hybrid that is a stunning red blooming azalea. The original kaempferi hybrids were collected in the mountains of Japan and sent to Kew Gardens in 1895. Ever since hybridizers have been using these beautiful azalea genetics to add cold tolerance and good blooming to their breeding work. Van Nes used these genetics to create Johanna, introducing it in 1969.  The vibrant cherry red blooms are quite large, making ‘Johanna’ especially showy. ‘Johanna’ may reach 4 ft in height by 5 ft in width in 10 years. 

Limited Quantities Available !! As we have hundreds of azalea cultivars, we often do not have many of each cultivar. We recommend that you buy the azaleas you want immediately as we often sell out of certain selections.
