Another azalea ID

Post by Jarrod »

I figure everyone else is posting up azaleas, why not request an id for the only little satsuki I have.

So any clues people?

I have one cutting started which is already destined for a friend, but he will be growing it on, when it gets a bit bigger I will try to get some more off it. It is a great colour!

Thats Rukizon - often called Kazan in Japan. It has the small pointed diamond shaped leaves right and black tipped stamens. Its a nice bonsai subject with its compact growth and small leaves. Tough too. Often shy to flower but you are obviously having no probs there :D

Enjoy!
