Through the warm months this fast, twining, semi-woody climber carries loose clusters of small clear-yellow flowers along the stems, pretty enough in passing, but the real event comes after, when each pollinated bloom ripens into a bright red winged fruit, a samara built exactly like the spinning key of a maple. In quantity the red keys smother the vine and glow against the small, neat foliage, an unexpected and long-lasting display that few visitors can name.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe resemblance to maple is pure coincidence.

The long, flexible stems climb and scramble readily, so give the vine a sturdy support to clothe: an arbor, a pergola, a fence, or a large trellis in full sun to part shade. Growth is fast once established, the small leaves cast light, dappled shade, and the plant asks only for reasonable drainage and warmth. Where winters bite, the top may die back and return, or a plant can be grown in a large pot and wintered under cover.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the garden, treat redwing as a warm-season screen or a conversation piece where the red-keyed fruit can be seen at close range: along a rail, over a gateway, or against a wall where the color reads.

The native American species carried something of that reputation into practice: the Cherokee used shrubby St. John's Wort and relatives as astringent and wound herbs and in remedies for respiratory complaints, a folk tradition set out more fully in the notes below.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFew native shrubs are so obliging.

Unlike the tall wild azaleas of the mountains, this species stays close to the ground, often no higher than the knee, and spreads by underground runners, or stolons, into broad, drifting colonies. The bluish, glaucous foliage is a hallmark, cool and sea-gray, and the species name atlanticum simply marks the plant's home along the Atlantic seaboard. The genus name Rhododendron means rose tree in Greek; azalea comes from azaleos, meaning dry, a fitting root for a shrub of sandy, well-drained ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn April, before or just as the new leaves unfold, the shrub covers itself in rounded clusters of white flowers, often flushed pink in the bud and along the tube, each blossom coated in sticky glands and breathing a strong, spicy, clove-like fragrance. For a plant so modest in stature, the perfume is remarkable, and a colony in full bloom can scent an entire corner of the garden. The tubular, long-stamened flowers hold a lightly waxy sheen from the glandular hairs that cover them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe coast azalea belongs to the same beloved tribe of Southern bush honeysuckles grown for fragrance rather than food, and the usual caution applies: like all Rhododendron, the leaves and nectar hold grayanotoxins and are not edible for people or pets. Deer, unfortunately, do not read the warning and will browse the plant, so a colony may need protection where deer pressure runs high. The flowers, meanwhile, feed early butterflies, native bees, and the first hummingbirds of spring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe low, suckering habit makes the coast azalea a natural for the front of a woodland border, a sandy bank, or a naturalistic groundcover-scale drift beneath high pines, where the glaucous blue-gray foliage reads beautifully against darker greens. Give partial shade or morning sun, sharp drainage, and an acidic, sandy or organic soil that stays evenly moist without staying wet. Shelter the plant from harsh winter wind and late frost, mulch the shallow roots, and let the colony knit together over time among ferns, wiregrass, and other native azaleas for a fragrant, low tapestry in spring.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Woodlanders","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42057969729651,"sku":"RHOD-ATLA-01G","price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0605\/7505\/5987\/files\/DETA-483.jpg?v=1720140716"},{"product_id":"solanum-rantonnettii","title":"Solanum rantonnettii","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis South American shrub is perhaps correctly Lycianthes rantonetti.
