In a perfect world, azaleas would bloom for months instead of just weeks, have big, full flowers with pure and true colors, and resist pests and diseases - and that's exactly what Perfecto Mundo™ azaleas do. The new Epic sub-series offers flowers of truly epic proportions.
Perfecto Mundo Epic Coral azaleas have gigantic pink-orange colored flowers with thick, petal-like stamens that give each bloom a semi-double effect. Look for them to begin their colorful bloom in spring, along with other azaleas, then after a brief rest to create new growth, put out new flowers from mid/late summer until frost.

Growing & Maintenance Tips for Azalea 'Perfecto Mundo® Epic Coral™'
Perfecto Mundo Epic Coral azalea blooms on old wood in spring, then later, on new wood. As such, it should only be pruned immediately after its spring bloom. Even if it doesn't need pruning, it's not a bad practice to give the plant a light trim after its spring bloom, which encourages new growth - the more new growth it puts on after that spring bloom, the more rebloom you'll get.
