About this Flowering White G.G. Gerbing Azalea Bonsai, 8 Years Old (Rhododendron indica 'Mrs.G.G. Gerbing')
Rhododendron indica 'Mrs. G. G. Gerbing', 8 years old and 13 to 14 inches tall. This selection carries blooms of a clean, unmarked white, opening across the whole crown in early spring, and the effect while it lasts is the main event of the tree's year. Once flowering finishes it returns to a quieter role, the dark green evergreen leaves providing a settled backdrop for the rest of the season. Azaleas of this type respond well to careful pinching once the last flowers have faded.
Satsuki Azalea bonsai care
This is a living Satsuki Azalea (Rhododendron indicum). Before you buy, this is what it will ask of you:
- Indoor / outdoor
- Outdoor — needs a real winter dormancy and cannot live indoors year-round
- Light
- Full sun to bright dappled shade; protect from harsh afternoon sun, especially in summer and around bloom time
- Water
- Moist — never bone-dry, but never waterlogged. Hates both extremes. Use soft/rainwater; dislikes hard, alkaline tap water
- USDA zones
- 6–9 (most cultivars hardy to roughly 0°F / -18°C; some to -10°F)
- #1 cause of death
- Root rot from overwatering / poorly draining or non-acidic soil
Soil, repotting, pruning, seasonal work and the full pest and disease list are in our free Satsuki Azalea bonsai care guide.
