We live in the Hudson Valley section of NY. Foolish first time gardener here over planted Azaleas in a flower bed and they are getting very crowed. When is the best time to transplant? I need to move about 4 plants. Any tips would be great. TIA!

However beautiful the strategy, you should occasionally look at the results.-W Churchill

I would think you are pretty safe if you transplant after the ground thaws but before the plant starts putting out leaves.

I have a couple of hardy bamboo shrubs and a couple of Rhododendrons that I will be moving/transplanting this Spring and that is what I plan to do.
