Hello,

Certianly sounds abit like root rot. If they go limp first then I would say YES it's root rot.

Spray copiously with Fongarid - that's a pretty strong fungicide and knocks it on the head if it hasn't gone too far.
While you're about it spray ALL your azaleas as it will crop up all over the place unless you use preventative spraying or Kanuma. I have had no root rot since switching to Kanuma.

Hi Beau,

I am sure others will give you advice on the azalea, but in terms of resizing photos, here is a link that dicsusses this in depth. viewtopic.php?f=97&t=161&start=0&hilit=irfanview

I use irfanview with plugins to save to the web, but the last suggestion in the thread above is another easy way as well. However I would use the Microsoft website to download the program

https://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/down ... rtoys.mspx you are looking for Image Resizer Powertoy or the link for Windows XP is listed below.

https://download.microsoft.com/download/ ... ySetup.exe
