Azalea Progression

[wiggs]

Bought this almost 2 years ago Dec 2016, decided to pot up straight away and keep hydrated and shaded over that summer, well this year it has really produced.

First two photos were two weekends ago, and then today.

That is a late flowering for Sydney.
Most azaleas done and dusted here

I’ve got most of my Azaleas flowering or just finishing



This one I bought as is a couple of years ago at Bonsai South and it’s flowering now also.

Maybe Satsukis Ken. Satsuki are later flowering types. My Satsukis have just started flowering this week as the Indicas and Kurumes are finishing.

Yes, I believe I have a Satsuki as well and I'm just waiting on my first flower now (colour looks a lot like this beautiful pink).
I've a tiny leaved variety as well that is still flowering sporadically.

Yep Satsuki for sure, Chinzan or Rukizon, both are mid to late season. I have some that have just finished flowering and others only just starting to budd, and a few that haven’t started budding yet. I don’t expect them to bud for another 3-4 weeks. Satsuki’s can have a long season of flowering when you have differing varieties.

Brown pot is Satzuki correct.

The teal pot is Rukizon correct also.
