We have secured some awsome Azalea's that are 100 years old!! We had to use build boxes auround them they are that big! So hurry down to Mt. Evelyn to see some great stock.

Re: 100 Year old Azalea's
Hello again. Not meaning to hijack your thread - very much looking forward to your pics - but just the thought of 100 yr old azaleas got me all exited so i went out shopping and came home with this beasty. Approximately 30yrs old.
A big mess of multiple trunks as you woul;d expect but i'm hoping that they will all be connected together by a like a big root connected raft...i hope.
Anyhow, awaiting your pics...
