Best Time to Visit Savannah for Azaleas

Hey all, I've been asked by a friend planning her spring trip when's the best time to see azaleas in bloom here. My experience is that late February and early March are usually the peak times, but it really depends on the weather. If you're looking for a specific spot to visit during this time, the Forsyth Park azaleas are some of the most popular - they usually start blooming around mid-February and go until late March.
