[quote=Anonymous]If they are beautiful, they don't need pruning right now. But with those azaleas, if you do prune as PP recommends, get your arm deep into the bush and take off whole branches where they join the main framework. If the shrub is too tall, take out the tallest/longest ones. This will bring down the total height and width, and also thin it out so there is more air and light, which makes for fewer diseases and more flowers next year. Take up to but no more than 30% of the bulk of the shrub. But as I said, if you like how it looks now it is probably in no need of pruning at all.[/quote]
