Why azalea does not bloom, what to do?
Indoor azalea: how to create conditions for flowering
The most frequent answer to the question - why does the azalea not bloom - is the wrong choice of substrate. The level of acidity of the soil in the pot must be maintained. For this, azalea is watered with acidified water once or twice a month. For example, 2-3 drops of lemon juice per half liter of water.

Azalea should be watered daily. With high humidity in the room, it is allowed to water every other day, but abundantly.
