If you follow John Geanangel on Youtube, he has great videos on his azalea projects.

Letting it grow for a season then cutting bk early next spring. Want to gain a little more thickness to the base.

Spring is here and your azalea could be blooming (depending on your location) or starting to leaf out with this season’s flush……it’s time for updates!

I would also like to add at this time we have 3 prizes to award. Many thanks to @Forsoothe! and @Deep Sea Diver for donating. I am also donating a prize as well.

If you are no longer interested in continuing in the Azalea Contest, please let me know so we can close your thread, thanks.
