This makes a gorgeous gift. Position: bright but indirect light Soil: good potting compost Rate of growth: slow Hardiness: tender (indoors only) Current height: approximately 25cm (+ or - 10% including the pot) Pot cover: choose a 14cm pot cover to give a good fit over the pot The ruffled white flowers of this gorgeous, miniature azalea, really stand out against the backdrop of lustrous, deep green leaves, while its simple colourway, makes it both elegant and easy to place. It's fair to say that it's not the easiest house plant to grow (so perhaps not ideal for a novice), but they are often considered a very pretty, and much longer-lived, alternative to a bouquet of freshly cut flowers. Please note that the pot in the photograph is not supplied with the plant (which is sent out in a simple nursery pot). They do however make excellent potted plants, and if you wish to pot yours up, we do have a wide range of pots on our website to choose from. Home care: Keep in a cool, humid room where it will receive plenty of light, and keep well watered - taking care to never let the compost dry out completely. If possible, water with rain water, particularly if you live in a hard water area. Maintain temperatures around 15°C and mist with water on a daily basis. After all risk of frost has passed, the plants can be moved outside during the warmer months before being moved back inside again in the autumn.
