BRACK: Azaleas may have survived freezing temps; be patient ‘til spring

By Elliott Brack  |  Remember those long days of below freezing temperature in Atlanta in December? Bet it played havoc with your outdoor plants and bushes.  It sure did mine. What looks particularly bad in our yard are the azalea bushes.  Before the heavy freeze, their leaves were healthy-looking and green. But after the freezing hit them, their leaves first turned brown, and lately many have been shed.
