Rhododendrons
are woody plants in the heath family (Ericaceae), either evergreen or deciduous, and found mainly in Asia, although it is also widespread throughout the Southern Highlands of the Appalachian Mountains of North America. It is the national flower of Nepal. Most species have brightly colored flowers which bloom from late winter through to early summer.
After a spring rain.
Azaleas are rhododendrons, but not all rhododendrons are azaleas, the main differences:
Most azaleas bloom in early spring, while rhododendrons bloom in June.
Azaleas have tubular-shaped blooms with five stamens. Rhododendrons have bell-shaped blooms with 10 stamens.
Azaleas have one flower per stem, and rhododendrons have clustered blooms at the end of each stem
Azalea blooms can be white, cream, pink, purple, orange, or yellow—rhododendron blooms are rarely yellow. Both plants are woody, rounded shrubs in the Ericaceae (blueberry) family with many cultivars and varieties.
