Double Shot Watermelon Azalea (Rhododendron x 'RLH1-9P7' (H-3) PP #27,877) is a compact, evergreen, reblooming variety prized for its vibrant watermelon‑pink blooms that appear first in spring and again in summer. This improved cultivar offers better cold hardiness than many azaleas, making it suitable for regions with winter temperatures as low as -10°F. Its rounded habit and dense green foliage make it an attractive choice for borders, foundation plantings, woodland edges, and container displays. Preferring filtered sun to partial shade and consistently moist, acidic soil, it delivers reliable color and form with minimal maintenance.
