Rhododendrons and azaleas are acid-loving, shrubs with colorful flower clusters. They prefer damp climates and mild temperatures, but there are rhododendron plants and azalea bushes suitable for Zones 4-9. With thousands of varieties available, there's one to suit just about every garden.

Zones:
4-9; however, the most variety is available in Zones 5-8.
Height/Spread: From 18 inches tall and wide to 20 feet tall; varies depending on species and cultivar.
Bloom time: Peak bloom generally occurs in mid-spring; however, some azalea and rhododendron plants bloom as early as March and others as late as July. Reblooming varieties bloom in spring, then again in summer until frost.
Flower color: Colorful flower clusters, known as trusses, come in many hues: pink, white, reddish-purple, deep crimson, blue, and yellow.
Exposure: Plants do best in partial shade or dappled shade, especially those with large leaves. Tiny-leaved alpine and dwarf species are best in bright sun.
Climate: The damp, mild climate of the Pacific Northwest is perfect for growing azaleas or rhododendrons; while growing in colder climes, especially the Northeast, can be a challenge.
Rhododendron types: There are eight different types of rhododendrons to choose from-some are tall like trees, others are more bush-like; some are evergreen, and others are deciduous.
