Cjr Mellow Row

[Cajunrider]

You can say I inherited the cultivars. Now to keep them healthy and dividing so I can give them forward.
Btw they are right in front of my stairway because it's the only spot with optimum sunlight.

Good job, he is a very generous person.

 

[Cajunrider]

One pot blown away by the wind and broken. Now repotted.
PS: If you look carefully, you will see that this azalea is in paratrooper training school.

When is the right time to prune and shape them in zone 9a?

I say now while it is still cool. @Mellow Mullet approves this?

 

[Mellow Mullet]

Yes, after it finishes blooming, go for it. I have already pruned several of mine.

Did they already bloom at your house? Except for the one pot of Wakaebisu, I have zero flower from the rest and hardly see any flower buds. I'm thinking about pruning them this weekend.

The ones like yours are finishing up. The Kobai are just starting, and the Wakaebisu are still tight.

Did you lose them all?

 

[Cajunrider]

Did you lose them all?

Barry snuffed most of them. I have 3 trying to come back.

 

[JoeH]

Did they drown or get blown away?

 

[Mellow Mullet]

What happened to them?

 

[Cajunrider]

What happened to them?

A couple got blown away. The rest drowned in salt water from the heavy salt spray. I thought the days long rain afterwards got the salt off but apparently not. So far only 3 of them rebuds after dropping all their leaves. Hard lesson! I should have brought them inside but I had so many other things to tend to and I didn't do it.
