| Botanical Name | Rhododendron indicum 'G.G. Gerbing' |
| Description | A legendary Southern Indica azalea prized in the Willis and Houston area for its robust growth and enormous, pure white flowers. It is a staple for traditional landscapes. To succeed in our local heavy clay, plant in raised beds with acidic soil amendments and pine bark to ensure the sharp drainage and low pH these plants require to flourish. |
| Exposure | Partial Shade (Morning sun with filtered afternoon shade is ideal) |
| Height x Width | 6-8 ft. Tall x 6-8 ft. Wide |
| Water | Moderate; prefers consistent moisture. Mulching with pine needles or bark is essential to keep the shallow roots cool and hydrated in the Texas heat. |
| Zones | 7 - 9 |
| Fertilization | Apply an acid-loving plant fertilizer immediately after the spring bloom cycle finishes. |
| Pruning | Prune after spring flowers fade. Avoid late-season pruning as this will remove the buds for next year's blooms. |
| Deer Resistance | Low |
