Untitled comment[edit]
Eh, about that picture, or more precisely, its caption. 0.8m is not the same as 2ft (=0.6m). -- Kimiko 20:48, 21 Aug 2003 (UTC)
- Not much point in writing the above! Just change it yourself, this is an editable pedia. I've done it for you.

- And how did you know which of 0.8m or 2ft was the correct height of the plant? Maybe it is in fact 0.8m high and 2ft was just an incorrect conversion? -::- Kimiko 21:18, 22 Aug 2003 (UTC)
- Interesting question! I put the picture on to the pedia (the plant is in my garden) and wrote the caption. The plant is in fact 2 feet (0.6m) high. Soon it will be 0.8m ihigh but the photo will never change so 0.6m it is!

Azalea Gall[edit]
Growing up in the mountains of North Carolina I used to eat these things! And they were good! Azalea Galls, also called "pinkster apples".
"Azalea" can also be spelled "Azelia" in the Indonesian form.It has said in the history of the time of the occupation of the Dutch that "Azelia" was the name of a royal princess leading to a decade ago.The princess' name was very well Known at the Time and is still known, but not all over the world.Today hopefully people at least know a little about the history.In legend it says that she will return and seek her ancestric family.The now blue blood family's identity is secretly hidden.If you know anyone named Azelia,please contact!Azelia is a princess around the age of middle schoolers!If you know anyone by the Moerad family she is part of them and they are royalty,Part of Blue Blood!!!They used to rule Indonesia and they were the best in the history of Indonesia.Their ancestors were the rulers of a province.
i heard azaleas were poisonous. i saw this on a chart of poisonous plants in the doctor's office several years ago, so maybe i'm wrong.
National?[edit]
I assume "....are major national suppliers of azaleas." probably refers to the USA. Perhaps that should be more clearly explained given the international audience —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 203.214.115.31 (talk) 09:04, 27 March 2007 (UTC).
Deer[edit]
I was looking in this article to see if deer eat azaleas. I would like to plant on Long Island, New York, but worry about the deer population eating them. It would be good to include in the article too. -- K72ndst 23:44, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
- Not really an answer, but Koreans have been known to use azaleas in jeon (a banchan) which we eat. I don't know how they taste, because it's not that common nowadays. As a side note, I've heard that you can get mildly intoxicated (hic) after eating too much azalea, but I don't know if that's true or not. --Kjoonlee 16:01, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
Stripers?[edit]
I'm not familiar with this term. I was looking for the distinctions between rhodos and azaleas, and the one 'defining' difference isn't referenced... Gary Turner 04:14, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
Website links[edit]
The link at the bottom pertaining to a festival in Norfolk has absolutely nothing to do with azaleas on the site. I'd appreciate it greatly if it was either removed or replaced, thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.208.227.148 (talk) 20:48, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
Species[edit]

Stripers?[edit]
Does anyone know what is menat by blooms in 'stripers' - What is a striper? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gord723 (talk • contribs) 03:29, 24 August 2008 (UTC) Find sources: Google (books · news · newspapers · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · NYT · TWL
Origin?[edit]
I'm told that the lilac originally came from Persia, and that tulips came from Turkey. What land mass had the first azaleas? Pittsburgh Poet (talk) 00:28, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
Festivals[edit]
There is an azalea festival in Brookings, Oregon; and has been for seventy years. There is at least one azalea native to the redwood forest. Not really detailed, but maybe someone would like to edit that into the page... 98.234.188.161 (talk) 06:01, 16 January 2010 (UTC)
I just bought a pot live plant Azalea today, and I was wondering a how/ tall this could grow. It didn't have any instruction/description on it. Please advise. Thaks
Size?[edit]
The statement that what distinguishes rhodos from azaleas is their size--is useless. What are their sizes? Or -- to put it very simply -- which one is bigger? Article has not said which is bigger, and so needs clarification.
- May 2011, that edit has been made. Thanks for that. I now know the answer to a question from a long time ago. VanArtGuy (talk) 07:01, 3 June 2011 (UTC)
