NATIVE AZALEAS 
The native Azaleas, commonly called 
‘Wild Honeysuckles”’ in the South, are all 
deciduous shrubs. Two of the species na- 
tive in Florida are carried in stock—A zalea 
austrina and A. canescens. 
Azalea austrina (Florida Flame Azalea). This 
beautiful Azalea, native in northwestern Florida, 
blooms in March and April. The spicy -scented 
flowers vary in color from light aie: through 
orange to orange-red. Plants grow to a height 
of 8 to 10 feet. 
Azalea canescens (Native Azalea; Wild Honey- 
suckle). The most common of the native 
Azaleas and is found throughout 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 height by 
pruning. The blooming season is in February 
and March.
