Saving Azalea

I have been hand picking infected Azalea leaves to save it from leafy gall. The flower buds have not yet bloomed into white flower, hope it will make it.

    White flowers? Can't wait to see them. I googled to see how the flowers might look like. They are very beautiful and I am sure yours will be the same. Have a good day!

    No, I don't eat those, it is not vegetable. I hand pick those infected leaves and throw it away, so that the disease won't spread.
    :P
