Azalea's are acid loving plants. I would plant it straight peat. Outdoor plant.

Yes outdoors. Also We did best in partial shade. The ones that were in constant sunlight did not do as well. They are beautiful when in flower.

They will do well in sun to part-shade. There's nothing as pretty as a spring garden with the azaleas blooming.

Mulch or compost from Pacific evergreen oak leaf is their favorite.
