MY FLOWER FOR TO-DAY.........THE AZALEA
Azalea "Formoza Lavender"
Plant them in dense shade and they won't bloom.
A good location is where they receive either dappled sun all day or sun in the morning and light shade in the afternoon. Good places might include spots under trees, or along the north side of your house.
Check your plant daily during hot, dry weather; potted azaleas dry quickly.
Use rainwater, if possible, as rainwater is less alkaline than tap water.
Feed the plants every month between spring and late summer, using a fertilizer formulated for acid-loving plants.
The best time to plant azaleas is in late spring or early fall.
Evergreen azaleas do well in partial shade with some wind protection.
Deciduous varieties flower more profusely in full sun.
Provide well-drained, humus-rich soil that is slightly acidic (pH 4.5–6).
