Rhododendron Vaseyi White Find

White Find Pinkshell Azalea

White Find (Rhododendron ‘White Find’) is a deciduous azalea with white flowers. Its display arrives in the early-to-middle part of the rhododendron flowering season, with the exact timing influenced by local weather. Individual flowers measure about 1½ inches across. The blooms open with a bell-like outline. The flowers are fragrant.

The plant develops upright branching and outward-spreading growth. The shrub sheds its leaves for winter, making its seasonal foliage and flower display especially noticeable. It can provide a flowering focal point within a mixed shrub border or woodland-edge planting.

Give it acidic, humus-rich soil that stays moist and drains freely. A sheltered position with filtered light or morning sun is a useful starting point; protect the roots from prolonged drying and keep mulch clear of the stems.
