These deciduous azaleas include both species and hybrids, mainly originating in America. We are particularly grateful to Mike Creel of North Carolina for seed, much of it from his own hand-pollinated plants.
Rhododendron vaseyi SDR2209 is a species in section Rhodora, quite different from those azaleas in subsection Pentanthera. It has pale pink flowers, opening before the leaves.
