Jim; I have participated/contributed for the last 5 years in Garden web forums, and originally the forums/participants were great in MHO , but when they...
Tadeusz What encourages and discourages active participation is an interesting question? I find both the Rhodo and Azalea forums to be very informative but...
Folks, I am starting to blush (from the two complements) down here in the south of intermittent winters. I have been working to set up a cobbled together "new"...
Ya'know folks, most of the time I do agree with the posts Mike puts out there for us to consider and give a try. This time, something caught my interest and...
Mike and Joe The problem here in New England is often too much peat in the pots when purchasing commercially grown rhodododendrons. Too much top grown and peat...
No, Joe I am not lumping your nursery operation with the offending "too-wet" nurseries. It seems that most of the "too-wet" places are the "middle-man" ...

Don, you are right on target with your remarks and actions. Just imagine that this same sort of practice is happening all over America. It is not just poorly...

Mike, The LFSB (Little Fat Satsuki Book) does not list a Satsuki by that name. Here are a couple other names that are close 'Misuzu'(Page 763), 'Mizuki'(Page...
The little Mizumi azalea is very probably something named and well known. It is definitely different and attractive. When bloom time comes I will photograph my...
I gave away to a nursery friend my LFSB after looking at the Satsuki photos for several years. Would either 'Misuzu' or 'Mizuki' in your book be very...
I had my wife taking a few photos this weekend, before the big rains, of me doing some of my routine propagation stuff, like drilling extra drainage holes in...
On December 31, 2005 I demonstrated (for a photo session) how I take dormant multi-branched cuttings of a native azalea, in this case an early arborescens I ...
Dear Mike, No, to all..........none of the three are all white. I did give the Wingard's cuttings from an all-white Satsuki variety named 'Daisetsuzan', but...

Bill/ mike; Could it be Mizu-no-yamabuki--- http://web.agr.ehime-u.ac.jp/~dr.yamaguchi/virtualazalea/mizunoyamabuki.jpg or ASA Pb base gallories under "CREAM...
I wouldn't mind a bit if my Mizumi is actually Mizu-no-yamabuki. I have Mizu-no-yamabuki rooted in at least three different pots under three different names....
I recently had to borrow a bunch of evergreen azalea plants as decoration for a Rotary art show. When they gave me the plants in October, I thought they would...
That nursery needs to take a course in proper selection of media for container plants. I design my media and my pots so they need just once-weekly watering,...

Mike, I've scanned in a photo image from the LFSB of 'Daisetsuzan', and have attached it to this message. The photo did not reproduce very well. The flower...
Tad, your Mizu-no-yamabuki, if it is like the photo on Dr. Yamaguchi's web page seems to fit the few flowers I saw on some of the plants when I bought the best...
