I have one that's been in the ground for at least a dozen years under a large tree. It's loaded with pink flowers.

I have the late flowering azaleas and they started to bloom. Some of my neighbors have the early blooming ones and theirs are already full of flowers for some time...

I know that horticuluralists have been breeding plants for ages so that they bloom at different times ot under different conditions, but I think I have always only ever seen azaleas blooming in Spring. That said, my neghbor has been here longer than me and I suppose it's possible I never looked at her azaleas around this time of year.

I was surprised a few days ago to see one flower on my pink early bloomer. Today it has several companions. Last year I think it was Christmas that it surprised me with super-early blooms. Haven't noticed the neighbors's... guess I, too, should pay more attention!
