Family Ericaceae

Azalea × 'Northern Hi-Lights', or 'Northern Hi-Lights' hardy azalea, is a floriferous and fragrant variety, remarkable for its cream-white flowers elegantly edged with soft yellow, which appear in abundance in spring. Its rounded and well-branched habit, combined with bright green foliage, creates a light structure that integrates naturally into semi-shaded borders, woodland gardens, or romantic settings. Part of the Northern Lights series, it stands out for its exceptional hardiness, without compromising on aesthetics. This azalea brings light, fragrance, and delicate contrast to wooded or lightly shaded areas, while attracting butterflies and hummingbirds.
