Wait until the last chance of frost is past. That is probably in mid-May. Most azaleas sold at Valentine's day, Easter and Mother's Day are florists azaleas and are not hardy enough to overwinter outside. In that case you will have to bring them in next fall before we have a frost. If they have a name, you can google it and see if they are a hardy variety. I am guessing they are not. You must be doing a good job if you are keeping them alive. Their biggest enemy is wet roots. They need good drainage. Never keep in a container that retains water. The need a pot with holes in the bottom. They also should only be watered when they are getting on the dry side. Here is a link that might be useful: Care of Greenhouse Azaleas

Jose thanks for the tip. Looked up the place's web site and it's located close to a friend of mine that I visit once in awhile. I called him and told him about the place and to check it out. Will visit and have a meal there. My friend told me that that name is very common in Staten Island. Lou

`Tony, I was there too. There were 2 people who showed up with figs to trade Peter, who wore the orange Belleclare shirt and myself who had plants next to his. I think I spoke with you and said I thought you have celeste figs. I must of eaten 50 figs last night. Had a great time and discovered a few figs that I never tried before that were excellent. Beleive it or not I tasted a green fig, with a deep red interior and thick skin that alomost dried on the tree and I couldn't believe how close it tasted to violette de bourdeau, THIS YEARS vdb which was outstanding. Next time lets do it on a Saturday in the day if possible. I know a few people who couldn't go because of work conflicts. How about in 2 weeks!? Ed

You can actually get seeds from LiveMonarch.com. Alot of places that sell milkweed plants have sprayed them with pesticide, well at least here in Va they have.
