How do you care for Azaleas?

In: Flower Gardening, Shrub Care [Edit categories]

Answer:

These set their buds in the fall, so if you want to have spring flowers, you do any necessary pruning in the spring after they have flowered. They may not be hardy in cold weather, so you need to water them when a freeze is expected to protect the roots and cover the foliage.
