Azaleas are a lifelong shrub that will add beauty to your garden for years to come, so youll want to take care of your azalea properly. The most important thing you can do for your azalea is to make sure the soil is acidic, at about 5.5 pH, and well-drained. Azaleas love the shade, so pick a shady spot in your garden when planting. We recommend regularly mulching your azalea to prevent the plant from extreme temperatures.

how can you have a second showing of flowers and do you clean up the bush after flowering and cut back the buds to have another show or do you just leave the plant altogether until spring...also is it necessary to give food to flowering azalea plants i heard it can draw heat to the roots and cause problems is that correct?

Great info Thank You !!!!

Pine needles or wood chips do not make the ground ascetic. After the pine needles or chips break down they are neutral.
