Description
An exceptionally rare and beautiful tetraploid Red Hills Azalea discovered in parts of Alabama and Georgia, the Coleman’s Multiflora Native Azalea, scientifically known as Rhododendron colemanii, features clusters of sweetly fragrant trumpet-shape flowers in shades of white, pink or yellow that resemble those of honeysuckle. The fragrance is a wonderful lemon aroma. This species is more drought tolerant than most other native azaleas because it tends to grow in drier woodlands naturally. If conditions are favorable, due to its stoloniferous nature you might end up with a colony. Growing 6 to 8 feet tall and maybe as wide over time, this species does best in part shade with average to dry soils. A natural beauty that will delight the senses with both its beauty and intoxicating perfume!
Rhododendron colemanii – A Detective Story
Landscape & Garden Uses
Growing 6 to 8 feet tall and equally as wide, the Coleman’s Multiflora Native Azalea is ideal for use as a specimen or in groupings in woodland borders or other areas of the landscape that provide dappled shade and moist to dry (when established) but well-drained soils rich in organic matter. Can be grown as a shrub or lower branches removed to form a highly attractive small tree. A fine addition to fragrance gardens, Azalea gardens, woodland gardens, native plant gardens, and cottage gardens.Â
Spacing:Â Â We do not suggest planting this beauty as a hedge. Space plants 14 feet or more apart for space between plants
Growing Preferences
The Coleman’s Multiflora Native Azalea is very easy to grow in moist but well-drained soil of average fertility and dappled shade or morning sun with afternoon shade. Once established it is quite drought tolerant requiring supplemental water only during prolonged periods of dry summer weather. Native azaleas are very low-maintenance, requiring little if any pruning. That said, occasionally we might prune a stray branch that is growing way outside the natural form of the plant, but not so much that it would spoil the natural form of this beautiful shrub.
