Where are all the azaleas?
 

I guess I waited too long, but I've been looking for some red azaleas
for the bed out by the driveway, and most of them seem to have suddenly
disappeared. I've been to Lowe's and Home Depot, both of whom had large
ads touting their 3-gallon 7.97 specials, but found only a few
scraggly-looking specimens. Anyone know of a source that isn't too
expensive?

How many do you need? I would bet Broadwell's has some. They
have THOUSANDS of azaleas. $7. I think.

I saw quite a few at the farmers market today.

I completely forgot about Broadwell's - thanks. I'll try Wal-Mart and
the Farmer's Market as well.

I think the time to get a bargain on azaleas is a little earlier in April.

Although I was not in town for the annual azalea/perennial sale at the State
Fairgrounds (last weekend), I bought 10 3-gallon azaleas for $75 total the
previous weekend. (Admittedly, it helps *a lot* that I'm retired, so I can
go to these things on Friday when they first open.)

Anne, it helps a lot to be a freelance writer as well. I went to the
garden club sale and got 12 Mrs. G. G. Gerbing azaleas on Friday. I'm
putting them in the back of the row, and if I can find some red ones to
go in the front, they should set off the pink ones in the middle very well.
