Just wanted to share this awesome little azalea that does not bloom, I got it from Dylan at cedar rose nursery and he said it’s a version that does not flower and would make a nice accent plant after doing some research it might be called saotome azalea

I recently obtained a 3” pot of an even smaller leave azalea than Saotome, it’s called “Saotome Komachi”. The leaves are long, narrow and curly. I placed a chop stick next to the leaves for size comparison.

It's very pretty. Where did you get it?

I got it from Moss Design Gallery in Houston, mossdesigngallery.com. They have many mame and shohin. Some of them, like this one, is very suitable for use in moss landscape design.

I wanted to buy the attached monastery landscape set up, it is so calm and meditative, but mt wife said I had to give up three bonsai to bring it home. Tough choice. There weeks later, I went back to the store, it was sold! So much for my meditation. 😴

I wanted to get the monastery moss landscape but my wife said I had to get rid of three bonsai before this one can come home. Tough choice. When I went back to the store about three weeks later, it was gone. 😭
