Stoneleigh: a natural garden

Most native azaleas are spring bloomers, but Cumberland Azalea gives us a stunning summer show. Varying from shades of pink to orange to red, the large blooms are set against glossy, deep green leaves. This plant is happiest with a little protection from afternoon sun so consider adding it to a woodland edge or an east-facing hedge or screen.
