if i trim my azaleas now will they bloom in the spring.i live in north east florida.
No. Do not trim them now. Wait until next Spring when they are done flowering. Then trim then. During next summer they grow buds that will bloom in the next year. If you trim them now you will destroy the buds that are for next Spring.
Be the change you wish to see in the world. Ghandi
I agree. Wait until just after they have bloomed. If you have an errant long shoot or two come up during the summer you may cut that back but do not prune the whole bush.
