Dad’s azalea

My dad just moved his plants back inside for the winter. This is one of his azaleas that’s blooming. He put two different colored ones in the pot together. He told me that with bonsai, even though the plants are smaller in size, the flowers are the same size. I like the bright colors! (I didn’t inherit his green thumb!)

he is clever. I would never have thought of bonsai azaleas.

Great shot of a hobby we share.

How lovely. And I never knew that about the bonsai.

Stunning picture.

Those would cheer up the indoors -- especially given all the gloomy fog the past few days.

Beautiful colours and plants! That's a handy fun fact too :)

This is beautiful ...Your dad must be quite good at growing plants!

Our local bonsai club has a rather old bonsai azalea that they display each year; it has very large blooms and is usually covered with them each spring!

What chipper colors! Thanks for the info too.

Never thought of putting azaleas into a pot! I love their bright slash of colour - would be good to see inside!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

How about that- I've never seen Azaleas in a Bonsai format before. That would certainly brighten up some of those gray winter days.

[Claude Trew]

Beautiful vibrant colours.

Didn't know about bonsai azaleas. Lovely

You have taught me something here! A lovely, colourful shot.
