Deciduous Azaleas
Deciduous Azaleas make a dazzling display, particularly in yellows and oranges. They are tough and fast growing plants typically reaching 125-150cm (4'-5') in 10 years. This selection ranges from the discreet small flowered species and Ghents, to the bold large flowering Knaphill types. Many have the added value of scent and autumn colours. While most hybrids flower towards the end of May, our newest introductions greatly extend the season into late June and July.
