Azaleas

Azaleas are flowering shrubs related to rhododendrons, known for their vibrant, showy blooms often appearing in spring and early summer. They have small, usually deciduous or evergreen leaves, and their flowers come in a range of colors, including pink, red, white, and purple. Azaleas prefer acidic, well-drained soil and partial shade but can adapt to various garden conditions. They are popular ornamental plants because of their striking flowers and relatively easy care. Proper pruning and soil management help maintain their health and promote better flowering each season.
