Gumpo Azalea in flower

Post by aussie4bonsai »

I have grown this azalea from seedling 5 for $10 from Rochester’s nursery in 2003.
This is the first time it has been in full bloom.

This gumpo had a label that said (gumpo X blue) I can not tell if the label belonged to this plant or if it was a cutting or a seedling when I bought them they were in a 40mmx80mm seedling pot I have another one in flower about 1/3 the size that has pink and white flowers some all pink some with stripes I can’t send a photo as I will not be home till next week.
