We have a large (over 6' tall & wide) azeala with a lower branch that has rooted in two different spots.

My conundrum is..... can I cut/dig those spots as new plants, transfer, & eventually have viable azealas, or do I just need to prune the branch off?

I've heard azealas would root like this. I've just never seen it happen before.

My flower beds have been sadly neglected the past couple of years. Hence the problem.
