BuckeyeOne's 2020-2025 Azelea Contest Entry

How's it looking now? Any progress pics to post?
 
Funny you should ask!!
It's been raining pretty much every day here for the last 2 weeks. Today should be the end of it for the next 7 days.
I got tried of taking pics with my cell phone, so I broke out my Nikon D40X last week for the first time in years!!
Hopefully I'll have new pictures in the next couple days.
It did survive the mild winter and is pushing new growth.

Excellent, looking forward in seeing how it looks now.
 
Looks like "Minato" except the center does not seem to be light enough, but must be closely related. It does have the semi-double flower form. A very aggressive cultivar nonetheless which gains height and girth very quickly. Good luck with the contest.
 
I finally got around to taking some pictures.
I did a light prune. I couldn't bring myself to chop it back to stubs as many suggest. All flower buds have been removed and leaves trimmed to pairs for the most part.
Already showing some backbudding!! Cool!!

Spring is here and your azalea could be blooming (depending on your location) or starting to leaf out with this season’s flush……it’s time for updates!

I would also like to add at this time we have 3 prizes to award. Many thanks to @Forsoothe! and @Deep Sea Diver for donating. I am also donating a prize as well.

If you are no longer interested in continuing in the Azalea Contest, please let me know so we can close your thread, thanks.
