Wildlife Rhododendrons and Azaleas by Lindsay Bond Totten Scripps Howard News Service Gardeners who don't believe our climate is changing haven't been paying very close attention. Either that or they aren't growing rhododendrons and azaleas. Whether we're simply going through a warming cycle, dominated by higher temperatures and less precipitation, or whether the globe is really heating up, rhododendrons and azaleas aren't happy about the shift in the status quo. Former stalwarts of Northeastern gardens, these popular plants are now hurting and their distress has gardeners wondering about their future in our yards. Azaleas (above) are so closely related to rhododendrons (right) that they share the same genus ( Rhododendron Do your best to keep existing rhododendrons and azaleas healthy by supplementing with plenty of water during dry spells. Given strong preferences for cool, moist growing conditions, it's not surprising that "rhodies"as they're affectionately knownare sulking. Extensive but shallow root systems adapt them to the rich, well-drained soils common along riverbanks. Overhead shade and plenty of moisture in their favored environments keep them cool, content and healthy.

65. Early Flowering Rhododendrons rhododendron Pacific In the Northwest one of the most popular garden shrubs is the rhododendron. One of the greatest advantages of this shrub is that it is http://www.humeseeds.com/rhody.htm

Early Flowering Rhododendrons At a time when there is not much flower color in the garden it is nice to be able to include plants that provide early color. The early flowering rhododendrons vary in color from beautiful pinks, rose, reds, yellows, whites, purples and lavenders. Growing heights of these early varieties of rhododendrons vary from about two feet high, to varieties that may grow into small trees when mature. Whenever possible, these early flowering varieties are best planted in a location in the garden where they will be protected from late winter frosts, that could possibly damage buds or flowers. I think one of the most important factors in selecting any plant, but particularly rhododendrons, is to select varieties that have attractive foliage. The plants are in bloom for only about three or four weeks, so the rest of the year you are looking at foliage. So good leaf color and pleasing textures are important considerations when choosing rhododendrons. It is estimated that there are close to one thousand species and thousands of varieties of rhododendrons. So with this wide selection it should be fairly easy to choose one with the right flower color; attractive foliage and a growing habit to meet the needs of any location in the garden.

Finnerty Gardens has one of Canada’s best collections of rhododendrons. The spectacular three-acre plot is tended by the Finnerty Garden Friends, a special group of University of Victoria alumni and community members who advise on the planning and development of the year-round garden. The Gardens were developed when, in 1974, the estate of Mrs. Jeanne Buchanan Simpson of Cowichan Lake was left to the University. She and her husband George, beginning in the 1920’s, built up a notable collection of rhododendron species at their Lake Cowichan home. Many plants were grown from seed obtained directly or indirectly from famous plant explorers of the day. Theirs was the largest collection in British Columbia. The Buchanan Simpson’s gift transferred to the University the responsibility for the well-being of a significant collection of a popular genus among Victoria gardeners. The University decided to move many of the rhododendrons to the campus where they would form the nucleus of a new garden that was created on nearly three acres of land at the south end of the campus.

General Information: Think "Woodland" When Planting Azaleas and Rhododendrons Azaleas and rhododendrons are woodland plants that are easily damaged by sun or wind. They grow best in filtered shade under deciduous trees, or on the north and east sides of fences, buildings or evergreen trees. However, they may struggle growing directly under evergreens or trees with dense surface roots like maples, poplars and sycamores. Easy Growing The shaded areas on the maps show where azaleas and rhododendrons thrive in the West. Special measures are needed to grow them elsewhere. With thousands of varieties to choose from, we cannot tell you which are the best for your garden. Ask a local nursery to suggest types that thrive in your area.
