Thanks for the useful azalea info Jim.

I have a few 15 year old azalea's in my garden that must be removed because
of my wife's landscaping plans.

Should I consider giving them a "wedgie" as soon as the flowers are
finished, bare root them, perform the wedgie, plant them in a large pot in
bonsai soil, give them minimal sunshine and no fertilizer ?

How about pruning the foliage?

Sorry for all the questions but I'd rather not loose them !!

...... giving your tree an occasional "wedgie" is often the right thing to
do.
