@pinkpaintpot Yes, there are bushes like this all over town right now, ranging from this light pink to red. I wish I had some in my yard.

@homeschoolmom maybe this years project is to get one planted?

Talk about vibrant. Do you water with pickle juice? I used to do that as a kid...good for them, I think.

I think you got some pink there.... :-D

Wow, pretty incredible!

Wow I don't know that I've seen an azalea bush that loaded in flowers!

@pinkpaintpot I would love that, but if I planted it, it would die. I have this uncanny knack of killing plants! In fact, I can't even get grass to grow here in this clay.

@elisasaeter @melston @danette Thanks!
@ladygator This is common here. Plants just solid pink or purple or red. It's crazy. I've never seen them like this before either, maybe they are a special type of azalea.
@amandal Is that the secret? This bush was at the cemetery near my house, but these are all over our town. I think these are one of the few things besides pine trees that grows well in this red clay.

@homeschoolmom what a shame, but then you need some grit and compost :)

WOW

@pinkpaintpot We might have to give it a try, since they obviously grow well in clay. Our yard needs some flowering bushes like this. Maybe I should fill our yard with these and forget the grass! LOL!
@joansmor You should see some of the yards here. They are filled with these bushes. Still blowing my mind.
