Where I live, rhodies and azaleas are so
ubiquitous as to be boring in the extreme. They offer an extremely short
bloom season, then sit as dull green lumps for the other 11+ months of the
year.



With a bit of study you can come up with a rhodo based garden that starts in
January and ends in August!


Mine go from March to July. What might be choice August bloomers in zone
8, if I may enquire?
