Azalea Mt. St. Helens... A Sometimes Red Azalea
Azalea Mt. St. Helens is my candidate for the single most beautiful deciduous azalea, and perhaps the most variable. It is basically a pink with a golden blotch, but the flowers vary dramatically from plant to plant, year to year, and even from the beginning to the end of the flowering season. I add it to my list of beautiful red azaleas (a light rose red or deep rose pink, actually), but it is a sometime red. The beautiful part is a constant, though. If you have the proper climate, and only room for one deciduous azalea, let me suggest Mt. St. Helens; you'll never tire of it.
