Azaleas & Rhododendrons

'HOT SHOT' feature of the week in 'Orange Euphoria' 1.14.22! Thank you for the honor, Rahdne!

These spring-summer perennials love a little shade & a little sun. With over 900 species of Rhododendrons, in colors of Red, Pink, Yellow, Purple, White & even Orange, they are sure to delight! Rhodies & azaleas, both from the genus Rhododendron, have long been mainstays of late spring because of its spectacular clusters of showy blooms and large green leaves that often last through winter. The flowers are usually tubular, funnel or bell-shaped and often fragrant. The leaves of the rhododendron are generally large and leathery.
These shrubs perform best if they are provided with moisture and shelter under trees. The two main groups of azaleas, evergreen and deciduous (varieties that drop their leave in the fall), can be found in nearly ever part of North America, from the frosty Canadian plains to tropical Florida. The rhododendron types are fussier, preferring environments where it is neither too hot nor too cold. They need a certain amount of chilling to develop strong flower buds.
With thousands of varieties, there are rhododendrons and azaleas for just about every landscape situation. There are low-growing ground cover azaleas as well as plants that can grow up to 25-feet tall. Though most plants flower in the spring, there are also summer-blooming varieties that add color and charm to the garden.
