I bought a florist Azalea (Indoor) in the spring in hopes of turning it into a Bonsai.
It did fine all year outside and now I have brought it inside ,as it's starting to bloom. my question is , can I root prune it after it blooms and transplant it into a pot now? I know I should do most root pruning in the spring,but I also read to prune Azalea after bloom. |

yes at the end of the blooming period is a great time to transplant. That pretty much goes for all trees and shrubs. They bloom at different times of the year, but blooming is a good indicator of the end of dormancy and the onset of growth.
Do keep in mind though that indoor or greenhouse growing can "force" blooming and upset the normal cycle the plant would follow if exposed to normal sunlight and temperatures. Regards, Matt
