How much should they be pruned? I planted some last fall and they are about
2 feet high. They just finished blooming. I read an article that stated you
should prune them "lightly", but didn't define the term "lightly".

My experience with azaleas (Formosa and others) is that there are dormant
leaf
buds all along the branches. When a cut is made, the branch will send out
shoots from the point of the cut and leaves will also develop along the
branch.


Azalea pruning should be done soon after bloom is completed to avoid
pruning
next season's buds.
