Azaleas


These are the double Azaleas that I planted about three years ago in the front garden. They didn't do well there - too much sand and great drainage - too little acidic mulch. So I prepared a new bed of composted peat moss on the north side of the garage and moved them last Spring. They are doing wonderfully now.



The single azaleas on the south side of the house were here when I arrived five years ago. They do very well in partial shade, so well, in fact, that I have to prune them back each Spring after they bloom.
