Ok so I know u guys are getting tired of me posting pics every weekend of a different tree the complete noob has went and picked up. But I'm having to learn patience since I can't work on em much this time of year so I'm reading alot on different trees and want a couple of them to learn.
I do have a few questions about these 2 guys picked em up yesterday. The one in the nursery pot the really lancky and scruffy one, seems to be in good health other than being leggy and scruffy. It has buds for next year's flowers has some fleshy branches showing signs of new growth. So spring I would like to repot for sure. I'm thinking of a hard cut back after flowers die off cause I haven't seen the flowers and I want to see what they look like. My questions for it is when should I repot before flowers or after and after flowers can I repot then and do a hard cut back at the same time. Or if I had repotted before flowers can I still do a hard cut back after flower die off.
Ok the second one, the one in the clay pot does not have any buds for next year's flowers that I can see. I did see one maybe two small fleshy branches showing signs of grow. I would like to get it healthy and layer it maybe. I'm thinking trying to feed it up for a repot. I'm sure it's in need of repot, but not sure if I need to get it a little stronger before hand. Any advice is welcome. Also are there some good links, or threads for azaleas. Like the ones u guys showed us for the JBP to help me with these guys.
I'm a gluten for punishment btw getting this plants on the ruff side. But I think taking a plant that is not perfect, get it nice and healthy, then keep it healthy will go further than taking a healthy plant and killing it. Hehe
