Pink Azalea Bush

Another pink flower from our garden

A pink Azalea bush located near the top of our garden.

In fact in the bottom left hand corner, you can see some crocus leaves....from the crocuses I shot and shared on here a few weeks ago.

I meant to post this last night, but wait for it ...I was on and off the phone from 6.30 pm to 9.10 pm complaining to Virgin Media Customer services about the problem with my new mobile phone.....I was passed from pillar to post to offshore call centres, repeating the problem to different people over and over again...This problem has been ongoing for over a month now ...from the moment I got the phone. Essentially the line keeps dropping during calls.....a fault with the phone....the outcome is the phone has to go to go 'off to be repaired' ...despite the fact that it is not fit for purpose and has never really worked right...so I will be without my mobile for the best part of 5 working days .....whatever happened to customer services. I just wanted it replacing ...take it to a virgin shop and swap it for one that works..... I just gave up in the end and agreed to return it ...they wore me out....I lost the will to call another call centre after weeks of complaining.
Oh poor you Phil...why do they make it so hard for everyone, so much easier just to give you a new one surely ...I would go straight to Richard!!!
You must look after this azalea very well, feeding & all that, It looks beautiful, a mass of flowers!

Fabulous Phil. I wish mine looked like this. Do you leave it our all winter? I took mine into the conservatory for the winter and it's just gone out side again recently, but it doesn't look very well.

@busylady thanks judith...yes we have several of these bushes around the garden....front and back ...and they all thrive in our ground ...although we do 'dead head' the flowers after they have flowered ...i read that in a book !

Oh Phil you buckled :) ... I would have too you poor thing! Very nice azalea. I have quite a few in my garden .. the part of Sydney we live in is high, so we get the cool damp winters for them to thrive, but the humidity of summer play havoc, with lace bug & spider mites.
