Azalea & Rhododendron

Help me to select an Azalea please?

13 years ago

I would like to purchase one nice azalea to plant in with my pieris and 3 Jean Marie Montague rhodies but I'm not sure if azaleas can be grown in morning shade and afternoon sun? If so, can anyone recommend any names of hardy, low-growing azaleas that would look nice with the red trusses on my rhododendrons? Thank you.

The American Rhododendron Society has an azalea finder where you select what you are looking for and it finds the varieties.

Here is a link that might be useful: ARS Azalea Finder

Rhodyman - Thank you. I ended up getting Mandarin Lights. I appreciate the link to the Azalea Finder. Hoping to add a couple more Azaleas, so ARS Azalea Finder will come in real handy.
