It's so worth all the work when the gardens shine and the plants bloom. I take it all in by taking pictures of them too so I can see them always! ❤️

Can anyone tell me if this is not a good plant to have in a garden or noxious? It's not in the encyclopedia, but it is called "Blush Elegance Rebloom Azalea". I've noticed a lot of runners of it all over my garden. I think so anyway. #plant-advice

I'm pretty sure this doesn't spread by runners or any other way.

I agree with @lesliecole49 - azaleas and/or rhododendrons don't spread with runners, as far as I know... are they shallow roots?!?

Thanks @lesliecole49 and @KariSamuel 😊. That's what I was hoping to hear. I didn't want to have to pot it. Perhaps it was from the seeds of their flowers blowing off by the wind when it was first planted and still in bloom. Do you both think that's a possibility? IDK if it can grow by flower seed. It was the first plant I planted in this bed and didn't have mulch in it until I was done with all the plants and making the whole bed which took time. Kari, yes, they are fairly shallow roots.

@lesliecole49 and @KariSamuel do either of you or anyone else know if there is another name, common or Latin, to find out why it's not in the encyclopedia on Garden Tags? I would add it accordingly to the tag it came with, but I don't know how to without more info on it. I'll try to Google it the name I have and see what comes up. Thanks again to you both😊 @teamgardentags @usgardentags #plant-id to add to encyclopedia please.

I was going to suggest Google. Wikipedia or any other sight will give you that info. You don't have to put all that info into the encyclopedia, but it helps others when you do.

Thanks @lesliecole49 ! I haven't had a chance to Google it yet and write it all down. I will try though. I've never done it before, but I'll put in what I understand soon, I hope anyway. 😊
