HEASELANDS AZALEAS NATIONAL COLLECTION

Deciduous Azaleas fall into three main categories - Mollis forms, which have large, scented flowers on bare branches in early May; Knaphill/Exbury forms, bred in England for their trumpet-shaped blooms, some of which are heavily scented; and Ghent forms, which came from Belgium in the 1800's and have honeysuckle-shaped flowers with protruding stamens and a wonderful fragrance in late May. By crossing these plants, not just with themselves but with (Rhododendron) Azalea occidentale and luteum, breeders have created the wonderful array of plants we know today.

Within our National Collections here at Heaselands we have over 370 Knaphill/Exbury types, 70 Mollis types and 25 other species and seedling varieties.

The aim of all National Collection Holders is the conservation of our plant heritage so that future generations can enjoy these plants. Without these collections, plant species would be lost forever.
