Toni- If you ever want to try azaleas again just go early spring and see if you can get the small pots locally at the big box stores. That way, if it doesn't work out, you haven't lost alot of money.
Those azaleas in my pictures really did work out well and the colors look so good together like that. The mixed colors are a double row, the light purple in back with the pink in front. I don't really have room for more azaleas as the ones in the picture are not the only ones I have in the garden. So I am not looking to add more at this time.
ZUZU - You are truely fortunate to have such a great local resource in that nursery. I know I would enjoy a trip there myself!
