When planting rhododendrons and azaleas, proper site selection is extremely important.
Azaleas prefer partial to full sun.
Rhododendrons perform best in protected sites in partial shade. An area that receives morning sun and afternoon shade would be a good site for rhododendrons. Avoid windy, exposed sites. During the winter months, the cold, dry winds and sun can dry out the rhododendron foliage and cause extensive leaf burn. Rhododendrons and azaleas require well-drained soils with a pH of 4.0 to 5.5.
