Azaleas are flowering shrubs making up part of the genus Rhododendron. Originally azaleas were classed as a different genus of plant, but now they are recognised as two of the eight sub-genera of rhododendrons - subgenus Pentanthera (deciduous), and subgenus Tsutsuji (evergreen). localphoto Link photo photo photo Genus: Rhododendron (rhododendron) Family: Ericaceae (various mostly lime-hating plants that thrive in acid soils) Order: Ericales (ericales) Class: Magnoliopsida (Dicots) Phylum/Division: Magnoliophyta (Flowering plants) Kingdom: Plantae (Plants) |
