The deciduous Azaleas - Azalea mollis - have been great in the
South of UK this last few weeks - However, the heavy rain is now taking it's
toll on these spectacular flowers.
Advice on Pruning Azaleas |

As well as having a huge range of flower colours, Azalea mollis
hybrids have a fantastic range of autumn - Fall - colours as the leaves prepare
for winter.
Like all members of the Azalea family, Azalea mollis are best
grown in acid soils. They are quite tolerant of semi shaded positions, and some
of the best specimens I have seen have been growing in woodland situations.
Azalea mollis varieties can easily reach 8ft (2.4m height).
