Azalea have a shallow, fibrous root system, requiring constant moisture, but dislike standing water. They need protection from the midday sun and a fertile soil with a low pH. To promote flowering for the following season, any pruning should be done soon after blooming, to leave enough time for the buds to reset.
All azaleas are rhododendrons. Evergreen azaleas belong to subgenus Tsutsusi, and deciduous azaleas are classified in the subgenus Pentanthera.
