Big Box Azalea

Here's a cheap azalea I got from a big box store while it was absolutely covered in bright purple flowers. I subsequently cut it back to new buds 3 times over the course of the summer, and reduced it to about 1/5 it's original size. There's time to spare to harden off the new growth before winter. It's now ready to grow out in the shape I choose and real root work can begin next year.
