Azaleas

My grandmother and mother as I have said before had green thumbs and beautiful yards. Azalea bushes were in their yards. The bright spring blooms showcases the bush Part of the Rhododendron family Azaleas are deciduous bush. The bush will shed its leaves in the fall.

Most varieties of Azaleas grow two to eight feet tall. The blooms on the bush are very fragrant as they put on a show in the spring time. Colors of white, lavender, bright orange, gold, red and purple colors allow the bush to shine. Azaleas are often small in size and therefore make perfect gifts for both Easter and Mother's Day.
