How To Reproduce Pink Flowers On My Red Azalea
Q: I noticed a branch on my red azalea that had beautiful light pink flowers. How can I reproduce it?
A: Air layering is a great way to make rooted cuttings from your favorite rose, camellia or azalea. The process involves wounding a limb, dusting the wound with rooting hormone and wrapping the wound with a fistful of sphagnum moss that’s kept dark and moist for eight weeks. It’s pretty simple to do and you can get several rooted starts from the same plant. I have pictures of the process and a great video here.
