EVERGREEN AZALEAS
Many evergreen azaleas grow well in the Middle Atlantic area. Most will tolerate more sun and water
than the large leaved rhododendrons. Thousands of varieties of evergreen azaleas grow well in USDA Zones
7 and 8. As winter minimum temperatures get lower farther north fewer varieties will survive the winters.
Evergreen azaleas come in many shades of pink lavender, red, white, purple and combinations of these.
