I'm in 7a and have a big potted azalea putting out blooms - first time
for this here. I've had this plant several years. Never bloomed in the
fall before. Not an Encore. The big in-the-ground azaleas are not blooming.

In the neighborhood a lot of azaleas are partially blooming.

Enough in my yard that i have an arrangement on the table.

Of course, their big blooming season is early spring.

Anyone else around Zone 7a seen this?
