Also called Pinxterbloom Azalea and Pinxterflower, this perennial, deciduous shrub grows 6 to 12 feet in height, with picturesque, horizontal branching. It produces large clusters of funnel-shaped, pink or white flowers appearing before or with the leaves. Pink Azalea grows best in partial shade, and in a variety of well-drained soils. The smooth, medium-green foliage turns dull yellow in the fall, and the tubular shape of the flowers is a good indicator that this plant attracts hummingbirds and butterflies. Pink Azalea should not be ingested as all parts, including honey made from the flowers, are toxic to humans and other animals.
