Perhaps the most common of the azaleas native to the southeast, Piedmont Azalea inhabits moist to dry areas in light shade. It is stoloniferous and an erect grower to 9 feet. Mid-spring flowers range from white to deep pink and are very sweetly fragrant. In addition to its wonderful smell, Piedmont Azalea is particularly useful because it tolerates drier conditions and because it naturalizes fairly readily eventually forming small colonies. Cat# 1277
