A pollinator-friendly flowering shrub that grows well in acidic soil
Judge Solomon is one of the most sun and heat tolerant of all the large old-fashioned azaleas. It also grows more rapidly than its relatives and can quickly become a large mound. What’s more, it’s extremely versatile in how it can be grown and used.
Because this plant prefers more acidic soils, it grows well under trees where other plants struggle. Enjoy busting out the shears? It’s also big enough that you can remove the lower branches and train it into a small tree. You can even pop it in a pot on a patio where you’ll have an up-close-and-personal view of all the visiting butterflies and hummingbirds.
Heads up! Don't plant near trees in the walnut family. This plant is sensitive to juglone, a compound walnut trees produce that makes it hard for other plants to grow around them.
Safety first. Toxic to pets and kids if ingested.
