Azalea - Hotspur Red

Hubby spotted this last weekend and fell in love. It's added a real splash of colour to our front garden.

Yes Bathgate, thats what hubby liked, when we saw it at the nursery last weekend it just stood out. It was fun planting it, it's already a couple of foot tall and took 2 of us just to get it out of pot, daughter at the muddy end lol.

Thanks Rkwright, I've not seen many here, saw that Karen has one by her pond. It is still in flower, doing so well considering it got man handled putting it into the ground. Funny, as you say orange but the name calles it Red :-).

I didn't even notice the name when I saw the picture lol. It's probably like crape myrtles and mountain laurels, most of them that are called red are really deep pink.

Lol, even if called Red, I call it the orange Azaleas when saying to hubby about it :-).
