You might want to take a look at the Rhododendron Society of Canada's
Niagara Region website.

The Girard's hybrid azaleas were hybridized in northern Ohio and are listed
as hearty in zone 5 so I am sure that you can grow azaleas in southern
Ontario.

It depends a lot on where in Southern Ontario. The area around Niagra
Falls has some sheltered areas and some exposed areas.

Check out:

http://www.rhododendron.org/performers12.htm

It lists many plants that do well in your area.

I planted 2 Azaleas in my yard last summer. Both were in sheltered areas. The
tag that came in each one said, "Grown in Canada." Neither one made it through
the winter and I live in Mi. Zone 5.

Maybe they were grown out here on the West coast ;-)

OOPS, Never thought about that. ;-o
