When is the best month to divide azalea into pots?

1. Time for dividing the pots

Generally speaking, the best time to divide azalea into pots is in May or June, after its flowers have completely withered. Because it grows relatively slowly during this period, dividing the pot will not easily cause harm to it. Do not divide the pot before it blooms, otherwise it may disrupt its growth rhythm and prevent it from flowering.

2. Basin division method

First use a shovel to loosen the soil, then take out all the plants. After completing the steps of root pruning and disinfection, prepare several flower pots filled with loose new soil and plant them in the pots one by one. After that, place them in a warm place and shade them from strong light. After a while, they will be able to grow back.

3. Notes

1. When dividing the pots, you must be careful. Especially when pruning the roots, be sure not to damage the healthy roots. Otherwise, after replanting, its efficiency in absorbing nutrients will be greatly reduced, and it may even fail to survive.

2. Do not water excessively after replanting and do not apply fertilizer for the time being. Wait until they are fully adapted to the new soil before watering them normally and resuming fertilization.
