Have You Ever Grown an Azalea Indoors?

I just have to share these photos. My Walking Buddie, Susie, and I try to get a in good walk once-a-week. After last week's walk, on her farm, we returned to her home and enjoyed a cup of something yummy (hot Ovaltine) and a girl scout cookie. ;-)

Anyway, I was awestricken by the beautiful flower on her kitchen counter! Isn't this gorgeous?

I would love to try this!

Seven years ago, this coming March 29, Susie's father died. She brought this azalea home. She's re-potted it only once. In the summer, Susie sets it outdoors and brings it indoors in late Fall. They have a sunny south window in their second-floor bedroom. It's nice and cool up there and it obviously thrives with this treatment.

It blooms every March. What a wonderfully beautiful memorial. :-)
