Rhododendron 'Blaauw's Pink'
Choose Blaauw's Pink Azalea if you want a compact evergreen azalea with soft pink spring bloom for a protected foundation or border; the tradeoff is that it needs acidic, well-drained soil and won't give you screening height.
Buy This If
You want a compact evergreen azalea.
You prefer soft pink spring flowers.
Your soil is acidic and drains well.
Skip This If
You need a tall screen.
Your site stays soggy.
Deer feed heavily in that bed.
PGNE Report Card
Category
Grade
Why
Landscape Impact
A-
It delivers strong spring color in a low, tidy shape, but it is quiet after bloom.
Growth Rate
B-
It fills in at a steady but not fast pace, so buy enough plants if you want a filled border sooner.
Maintenance
B
It needs acidic soil, mulch, and light pruning after bloom, but it is not a constant-trimming shrub.
Deer Resistance
C-
Deer may browse azalea foliage and buds, especially in winter or where food is scarce.
Small Space Fit
A
Its compact mounding habit works well near walks, entries, and low foundation beds.
Screening Value
D
It is too low and broad for privacy screening, though it can edge taller plantings.
Our Experience
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend Blaauw's Pink for protected beds with cool roots and good drainage; if the site is dry, exposed, or high-deer, we'd steer you to a tougher shrub.

Customers Usually Ask
Is it evergreen?
Yes, but winter foliage can look duller after cold wind or sun exposure.
When should I prune it?
Prune right after flowering so you do not remove next season's buds.
Can it handle hot afternoon sun?
Only with steady moisture and protection; hot, dry exposure is not the best placement.
CLEARANCE
Locally grown for New England conditions
Every plant in our Fall Sale is grown or hardened off right here in New Hampshire, so it's already acclimated to New England winters before it ever leaves our nursery.
We use your zone to recommend plants that survive your winters, and to estimate when your
order ships — we ship each plant when the weather where you live is right for it.

Showed up on time and planted it perfectly. I indicated a light we had to illuminate it and they placed it for optimal lighting. Worked fast and left a clean worksite. First rate!

They delivered three trees: a big linden, a big poplar and a little spice bush with install on the big trees. The install guys were great and professional and fast. All the trees looked good with minimal damage.

I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!

The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
