just wanted to share something I found while checking over my azalea, this double leaf growing just as happy as can be. this tree is a scavenged dig up from a larger small leaf azalea. notice the two veins instead of the usual single in the leaf or leaves not sure which to call it.

cool... mutations happen a lot and sometimes can be grown into new species of plants. a master bonsai artist in my neighborhood (Bill Valavanis) has propogated a mutation and the new sub species was named after him. if it continues to mutate on this branch it can be airlayered and grown as a double leaf azalea with your name on it
After a failure of a root over rock attempt dont know if you remember that Conifer or cedar that got a orange fungus it lost the battle. Anyway I would love a different challenge, air layer would be after this branch diameter is a bit larger I assume?
I am really hoping that it will stay on that branch and I will be able to air layer it like manofthetrees suggested. so I will postpone any pruning on that branch. Assuming that there will be other leaves like that.
