Evergreen Azaleas, (sometimes called Japanese azaleas) keep their leaves in winter, and typically grow to 40-80cm (18″-30″) in 10 years. Deciduous Azaleas are taller, reaching 120-150cm (4′-5′) in 10 years, and lose their leaves in the autumn, often with some wonderful colours first.
Care:
They do best in moist soil conditions in locations where they get at least some dappled shade for part of the day from nearby tall trees. Full shade is not a good idea. Evergreen azaleas do need wind protection from cold east winds which can defoliate them a little and sometimes scorch and kill them as small plants.
