    Please can anyone give me advice on this azalea, I love the colours but it’s got very leggy, should I cut it back or is this how it should grow, this is its second year, many thanks.

    It looks like it's sported a dark pink on one branch - maybe cut that off after flowering and try to propagate it?
    If it gets potted on to a bigger pot, once the foliage comes through more, it won't look very leggy IMHO .
