The Japanese Azalea Hybrids Like 'Mizuho No Kagami Azalea' Are Good Plants For Those Who Love Long-Lasting Showy Flowers. Unlike Azalea Hybrids, The Leaves Are Lance-Shaped To Elliptic In Shape And Somewhat Smaller, Measuring 1/2 To 2 Inches Long, Making It The Magnificent Bonzai Plant That It Was Meant To Be. It?S A Compact, Low-Growing Evergreen Azalea, Which Makes It Perfect For The Smaller Garden. This Low Maintenance Shrub Appears To Be Able To Withstand Slightly More Sunlight Than Most Azaleas, But This Does Not Imply Hot Sun. Filtered Light Is Still Preferred. Also, Use High And Well-Drained, Acidic Soil, Rich With Organic Matter. However, Water Consistently To Prevent The Roots From Drying Out. This Cultivar Was Bred Between Rhododendron Indicum And Rhododendron Simsii.
