Most azaleas flower in early spring to early summer. Azalea flowers are definitely beautiful, but their fruits are not conspicuous. The fruits are dry, woody capsules that split open to release the seeds onto the ground. If you have a cultivar, it is unlikely you would even notice the fruit. Some species and cultivars are fragrant and will atrract insect pollinators.
Azaleas have a wide variety of landscape uses.
Massing, foundation planting, shrub borders, patio gardens, rock gardens, Asian gardens, and lightly shaded spots are all enhanced by azaleas. If massed, different colors can put on an overwhelming show. Many people use azaleas in formal or planned gardens, but they are also great for naturalizing open landscapes. They grow well in forested conditions. If selecting azaleas for a natural spot, it is better to select an actual species rather than a cultivar.
