Default azaleas?

Is there a way to lengthen the bloom time of azaleas down here? A couple
friends have been asking, and afaik, azaleas are happiest with cool nights
(around 60F) and maybe azaleas can be deadheaded. Anybody? Anne?



Another azalea question - I need to trim back the azaleas in front of my
house windows as they are getting too tall. Is the best time, right after
they finish blooming? How drastic can I go without hurting the blooms for
next year?
