Azaleas

I have many azaleas in my yard and all have bloomed in past seasons. I have 5 groups of George Tabers around trees. This year 2 of the groups did not bloom. The other 3 groups were full of blooms. What could have caused the other 2 groups to not bloom?

Several things could cause this, including a lack in phosphorus. This would cause the plant to stop blooming. Add some phosphorus to the soil.

This can be caused by hills, buildings, dips in the ground and even other plantings. Microclimates can cause an area in a yard to be up to a full zone higher or lower than other areas of the yard and may be as small as just a few feet.
