Azaleas in the landscape...No other flowering shrub has contributed more to the American garden than the azalea when one considers that, by proper selection of varieties, color can be had from October through June. Azaleas can be used in mass plantings or spotlighted as single specimens. They can be shaped as bushes, hedges or trees. They thrive in hanging baskets and decorated pots, and some varieties are very popular for bonsai. The versatility of this plant is unlimited. However, most azaleas are at there best when planted in groups or drifts. An ideal situation for them would be among high trees so spaced to allow the sun and light to pe*****te yet providing intervals of shade to give the plants some respite from the hot sun. Where there are not trees, the north or east side of the house or high fence would be desirable. Many azaleas do thrive in full sun, notably the Southern Indicas.
