NATIVE AZALEAS 
The native Azaleas, commonly called ‘‘Wild Honey- 
suckles”’ in the South, are all deciduous shrubs. Two of the 
species native in Florida are carried in stock—Azalea 
austrina and A. canescens. 
This beautiful 
Azalea canescens (Native Azalea; Wild Honeysuckle). The 
most common of the native Azaleas and is found through- 
out northern Florida and southern Georgia, growing on 
moist, but well-drained acid soil. The trumpet-shaped 
flowers are usually light pink in color, but white-flowered 
and deep pink specimens are sometimes found. They 
grow to large size, but are readily kept at any desired 
size by pruning. The blooming season is in February and
