Rhododendron canescens - Pink pinxter azalea

About eight hundred fifty species of Rhododendron are found mostly in the North America, Europe, and Asia, with numerous species in New Guinea. Our garden azaleas are among these many species of Rhododendron. Pink pinxter azalea is native to the southeastern United States including northeast Florida. Flowers appear in early spring before the leaves are produced. This azalea is deciduous in winter.

'Varnadoe's Pink Phlox' was selected for its good, pink flower color and foliage that stays healthy throughout summer and fall.
