When you add the video from YouTube, how are you posting the link? The last couple times I've tried it hasn't worked....or, at least, the method I've used in the past isn't working.....thanks.

I just copy the video url and paste it into the message body. Don't use the link tool.
My favorite The Who song, btw.


your youtube link should look like this

ex - I'm not going to live with you through one more fishing season!
me -There's a season?

My son: My dad has two fish on his car and they're both trout!

Moisture and pH. Both want the same pH range, Kalmia can take drier soils than Rhodo.
You see Kalmia on poor soils with Chestnut Oaks, Hickories, Sourwoods, etc.
You see Rhodo with Magnolia, Maples, Tuliptrees.
IMHO.
The native azalea is even more uneven. Not as clear cut.

Yes, Kalmia thrives in the hot and dryer Piedmont along the rivers whereas rhodo in the Piedmont of NC is relatively scant. 

Although not always the case, I see more rhodo where softwood trees are/were prominent, particularly were hemlocks have died out in mixed white pine, and younger hardwood forests.  It seems that really old growth hardwoods forests don't have much rhodo.
