Azalea Mollis Satan 4.5 Litre Pot

Azalea mollis ‘Satan’ – Fiery Scarlet Azalea for Dramatic Spring Colour

Azalea mollis ‘Satan’ is a bold and dramatic deciduous azalea, producing clusters of vivid scarlet-red trumpet-shaped flowers in late spring. The intense colour creates a striking focal point in the garden, bringing warmth and energy to borders and woodland planting schemes.

The large blooms appear just as the fresh green foliage begins to emerge, allowing the fiery flowers to take centre stage. Planted in groups or combined with other azaleas, ‘Satan’ creates a vibrant spring display that stands out against surrounding greenery.

With its naturally bushy, upright habit, this variety works beautifully in mixed borders or woodland-style gardens. Its bright tones contrast particularly well with softer pastel shrubs, ferns, and shade-loving perennials.

Like other mollis azaleas, ‘Satan’ thrives in partial shade and prefers acidic, well-drained soil enriched with organic matter. Once established, it is hardy and reliable, requiring little maintenance beyond occasional shaping after flowering.

Bold, vibrant, and wonderfully eye-catching, Azalea ‘Satan’ is an excellent choice for gardeners seeking dramatic late spring colour.
