    I am trying to determine the azalea grown on the north east side of science world in vancouver?
    They are pale pink about 6' tall, discidiuous and in bloom right now.
    They are about to be dug up and incorporated into my clients garden. In order to match it i would like to know the type and name if possible.
    Thanks for any help you can offer.

    Hmmn. I haven't been over there in quite a while. Do you have a photo? And did you try asking anyone at Science World?

    Might try Rhododendron schlippenbachii, Royal Azalea.

    Really poor timing for digging these up, unless there is very little root disturbance.
