Are The Hybrid Azaleas Evergreen?

Question

I live in zone 6 and would like to grow evergreen azaleas on pots. Thank you.

Answer 1

Azaleas are typically grown in milder climates, such as zone 7 and above, so make sure the tag says zone 6 or colder, such as Gable evergreen hybrids. If you grow them in pots, you need azaleas rated for colder zones such as 4. The tag will indicate whether it is evergreen.
