Last fall, to my horror, my new neighbors chopped the entire yard full of azaleas down to stumps. Now they are resprouting and my neighbor asked me what to spray with to kill them. I requested and got permission to transplant them to my yard. They are sprouting prolificly as the two photos show but I worry about the practacality of moving 25-30 year old plants that were so badly damaged. What kind of success rate can I expect? (This is mid-Georgia)
Azaleas are very hardy in the South and I would definitely try to move as many as you can. Free azaleas are a find. I can't say how many will survive and thrive but they have a good shot at survival.
