Tangled Branches: Gardening ::: Thumbs ::: Next >> ::: Azalea (bubble-gum pink). A few years ago I planted 3 plants of each of 3 varieties near the back of the lot. I think they are all Gable Hybrids. This one is always the first to bloom. One of these days I'll find a record of it in my notes, or find the tag, or find the sales receipt, and then I can call it by its proper name.
