The azaleas on the balcony have burst into full bloom. Give them a little of this when they flower, and the blooms that come out are simply stunningly beautiful.

Now the wildly blooming Azalea 'Sima' on the balcony

This Azalea 'Sima' bought new last November looked like this when it first arrived home

Because the roots were fairly well developed when purchased and the pot was too small, after finally squeezing it in I still regretted it. After enduring it for a month I still repotted it, switching to a 25CM diameter red clay pot, and psychologically I felt much more comfortable

This year when growing azaleas I no longer believe in the tradition of stopping fertilizer during flowering, and started spraying a flower-promoting nutrient solution once a week, alternating with a little potassium dihydrogen phosphate in between. Unexpectedly, they bloomed better and better, and placed on the balcony, they really catch the eye

Another pot, Xiaotaohong, is also blooming quite nicely
