Rhododendron indicum, the Southern Indian Azalea, is a dense, semi-evergreen shrub native to Japan. It features a compact growth habit, typically reaching two to three feet in width. Its lance-shaped, glossy dark green leaves often take on reddish tints during winter. This species is prized for funnel-shaped, scarlet flowers that bloom in late spring. It thrives in acidic, well-drained soils under dappled shade, making it ideal for woodland gardens, low hedges, or foundation plantings.
