1. One of my tree's had something on the bottom of their leafs.
It almost
looks like grains of sugar. Have never seen anything like this
before. Any idea?


What tree? But I probably wouldn't worry. Most likely it is
just the tree ridding itself of excess chemicals -- either from
the water, or from left-over fertilizer in the soil. The
chemicals are precipitated from the stoma on the underside of the
leaves..


2. For the first time, I have an azalea. I normally put all of
my trees on
my unheated closed in porch. I have been told that the azalea
is going to
need sun all winter. So should I attempt to bury the pot and
leave it out
doors in the sun? or can I put in on the front porch with the
rest of my
trees. There is some sun light that does come in so it is not
completely
dark. So far this has been a warm winter and I am just how
putting them up
for the rest of the winter.


Azalea should do OK outside in most of zone 7, though you may
want to bring them into the porch for protection when
temperatures get into the low 20s and below. Then, put them
outside again when it "warms" up.

believe it is warm until temperatures reach the mid 60s.
