I put a pic of the azalea

Saw it. It is very small so just leave it in that pot for now and enjoy the flower. I see some buds! Maybe it will help get your tree properly identified as well.

Do not drown it! ;)

I see these Chinzan Azaleas a lot in the big box stores. They have to be hardy as they either keep them near drowned or near dehydrated, depending on who is working there!:eek: The good thing is they always seem relatively healthy despite the abuse. They are a dwarf Azalea and I have never seen one with a really thick trunk. Azalea's have different needs than your Junipers, more acidic soil and ferts and a different watering routine. They seem to bloom abudantly and make pretty displays.

You can repot Junipers this time of year. You know that a small pot will greatly reduce the growth, so if you are happy with the size that is ok. If you are looking for more growth, larger trunk etc. then either plant them in the ground or in a really big container or a grow box to let them develop. This will take several years, the longer they grow unhindered the bigger the trunk and branches get. During this period only prune to maintain shape.

The chinzan is pretty tough, and roots very easily. When it blooms, it will have pink flowers. I just posted one of mine in the "flowering" part of the forum.
