Azalea


Azalea (Azalea Japonica)

The two I have in pots are just starting to burst into colour now. I had a third one but together they all suffered from leaf gauls, once treated they survived.

I noticed that many of you in the UK have your Azaleas in pots. These must be the tender perennial type ? We also have them here in the USA ? Mine are the hardier ones all in the ground and survive the winters very well.

I think it's more the soil type. I ve got one in the ground and he is not doing as well as the ones in the pots.

In our town, there is a geological fault with acid soil on one side and alkaline on the other. We grateful that we're on the acid side and can grow azaleas and rhododendrons!
