AZALEAS

Wallpaper Description:

Azaleas are small evergreen shrubs that are in the same genus as Rhododendrons. There are more than 10,000 named cultivars of azaleas, several thousand of which are commercially available. It can be difficult to tell rhododendrons and azaleas apart but two things distinguish them from each other; smaller size and flower growth. While there are small Rhododendrons, most typically have larger leaves and larger growth than azaleas. Rhododendrons produce clusters of flowers on a single stem while azaleas typically have terminal flowers, (one flower per stem). Azaleas however have so many more stems that during their short bloom period the whole plant is typically a mass of color. Most azaleas are equally proportionate meaning they grow roughly as tall as wide. Most azaleas require roughly the same growing conditions however there are a few varieties that have been created to survive more extreme conditions.
