Azaleas pt.1

Did you know there is an underground shopping area in Kawasaki called "Azalea"?  There is a big sign in English next to the Keikyu Kawasaki station. I think many people ignore it because it is in English.  Do you know what "azalea" means?  In Japanese, it is つつじ. I like azaleas even though I may be allergic to them.  Sometimes they make me sneeze.  Anyway, I think they are very beautiful to look at . There are many varieties. Did you know that Nezu shrine in Tokyo is famous for Azaleas? I read that they have a festival every year with thousands of plants. I would like to go see them, but I am so busy teaching. There is no time to stop and smell the roses!

Challenge Time!

1. How do you say つつじ in English?

2. What happens when I get near azaleas?

3. Where is a good place to see azaleas?
