Although my country is the origin of rhododendron, there are many local species of rhododendron. However, many of the azaleas we admire come from abroad. There are generally two ways for them to enter my country. One is to breed and cross from Japan and then enter the country; the other is to enter the country from Europe. We generally call the cuckoos that enter my country from Japan the east cuckoos, and the cuckoos that enter our country from Europe are called the cuckoos.

The flowering period of both is in winter and spring, but The flowering period of azalea can be slightly earlier, starting from about New Year's Day. The flowering period of azalea is later, blooming around the Spring Festival.

2. Rhododendron of all seasons

Nearly For more than ten years, we have often seen a variety of azalea called Four Seasons Rhododendron on the market, which has no fixed flowering period. Its main flowering period is similar to that of the cuckoo, around the Spring Festival. In addition, as long as the maintenance is reasonable and the environment is suitable, it can bloom at other times, but the number of blooms will not be as good as during the main flowering period. However, generally when the summer temperature is above 30°C, it will no longer bloom. It can bloom in a cool environment.
