Just Beautiful...Absolutely amazing display full of flowers. Really love the shape of your tree...How long have you had it...? Age...? Do you use products such as "Better Bloom" for your flowering trees...?

Hi BF, i have had the tree for 13 years and i had it in the ground for four of that time. I use the same for all my trees and that is an organic fertiliser called bettergrow. I occasionally put a little citric acid on this tree as these like it a little acidic.

Thanks for the encouragement folks.
Where have you been hiding Damian :?:


It has been pruned and wired (I hate wiring Azalea's, very brittle :palm: and snapped a few) ready for next year. Azalea's are so slowwwww!

Wow.
Fantastic Nebari Bodhi!

Azalea's are so damn slow aren't they!
I've had mine growing for years now with no real progress to speak of.
I must say that I have a fantastic crop of flowers this time round - so I'll forgive the wretched thing for now :shifty:
