EVERGREEN AZALEAS IN ORDER OF BLOOM

Azaleas are great landscape plants and perform beautifully if planted in the correct microclimate....under tall pine trees in rich, well drained soil, with a sprinkler system would be ideal. It is possible to have a prolonged season of bloom (2 months) from the azaleas if numerous cultivars are used. The following are popular azaleas listed according to their normal sequence of bloom:

Early: Hino de giri, Sherwood Red, Coral Bells, Tradition, H.H.Hume, Hershey's Red, Snow, Hino Crimson, Delaware Valley.

Midseason: G.G. Gerbing, George Tabor, President Clay, Formosa, Rosebud, Elaine, and Pink camellia.

Late: Gumpo, Lady Robin, Martha Hitchcock, Harris Purple, Higasa, Pleasant White
