2:42 Maen! "Pretty in Pink"

Well hello there Dan, you are perky for a Monday morning, me I am having a typical morning coming back to work from a three day weekend, little slow and foggy!

Aimee :-)

Beautiful! Wish they grew well in my area...

Good day all

No cats hanging around

Very pretty! Mine are the common red variety

3:55 Hi to all.

Very pretty-- I just planted an Azalea (not the Silver Anniversary though)-- we will have to see how it does--I don't have your green thumb Sue-- so I am kind of trial and error with planting!!

Love Azaleas - Maen all!

4:09 - took a while to sort out a misclick.

I didn't get all of it? Is "Silver Anniversary" a kind of azalea, or am I expected to give my wife azaleas for our silver anniversary? (8 years and 12 days to go)

3:59 to you all.

Calling all gardeners ... we've had azaleas and rhododendrons planted for eight years--great flowers, but the shrubs are getting leggy, are oddly shaped and look like heck once the flowers are gone. Can they be lopped back like any other shrub so they fill out? (Garden centers around here have been no help ...)

maen all! alas,no azalea flowers 'til next spring. my mom has some beauties that still thrive after about 50yrs. i remember them in the front yard when i was a tyke of 6 or 8. p.s.:thanx for the deluge of support info from all. i knew it had to be something simple. i kept looking,without success,in the site tool bar.

Cathy, you definitely can cut back the rhods, but you need to be careful when you do it or else you will not have any flowers next year. Not so sure about the azeleas, mine are the same way. So, if you get any good advice please share. Thanks!

Oh! Very pretty.

Cathy... you can prune them back IMMEDIATELY after they finish blooming. That way they will have time to put out new growth to bloom on next Spring.

I'm a PRO! I actually have ONE Azalea (a deep gold) that is THRIVING and robust!

Good afternoon to all! Nice photo.

Good morning all.Raining & quite cool today.My azaleas are just blooming,look lovely but rhods wont grow here its too hot.Have a great day everyone.

Azaleas do quite well in Sydney, particularly if we have a dry winter. Rhododendrons aren't supposed to do well, but there are some amazing bushes/small trees growing in gardens around here! The azaleas are just starting to flower now. The Rhododendrons will flower a bit later. Heidi's right about More...

7:46 Speaking of azaleas and rhododendrons, maybe some people are not aware of their relation, the mountain laurel that grows in the eastern US. It's the state flower of Connecticut. It's the size of a tree in the mid to southern states, but more shrublike in the north. The wood is supposed to be More...

Very pretty, I have one in a pot a little paler than that, which is just coming into flower!! I bought a red one for the front garden, but sadly it has gone to God - along with the gardenia, and.... Oh well, I do try!

My silver anniversary is on Wednesday, but alas I have no azaleas!

Because of it's name that one was given to us for our Silver Anniversary, 20 years ago.

Pretty colours.
I have an azalea, a plain white one.
Must put a pic of it and some other things in my garden on my page.

Pretty pink Azalia....just what I needed!

Beautiful.
Azaleas love a prune.
They don't like sultanas, but they do like prunes.

pretty pink.
