Oh interesting. And pretty! I’m not sure I’ve seen a potted azalea before. Maybe it’ll be like a bonsai. If you live somewhere warm, it might like living on a porch/deck/doorstep

I’ve never had one myself but I’ve read about them before, they prefer cooler temps between 60-65 degrees fahrenheit and their blooms last longer in cooler temperatures. Make sure to keep the soil moist, but not drowning in water and they like higher humidity too! It looks super pretty and I’ve been wanting one myself! Good luck ☺️
