Does anyone want a 10ft tall Azalea in SE PA?

I'm hoping there is an azalea lover in my area that can help me find a home for one of the azaleas in my yard. It is an old hardy bush approx 10 feet tall and at least six feet in diameter.

I do not know the color of the flowers yet, as we moved here after it bloomed last year.

I have close to 30 other azaleas on the property. This one is by far the largest. It is not in a location that would want a shrub, and is going to be too much for me to maintain. We have so many other things going on in this yard that need immediate attention that I can't devote time to this monster.

I live near Longwood Gardens. If someone wants it, they will have to dig it up and transport it. I just want to make sure it goes to someone that knows what they are doing with the plant.

Here is a photo- it is that huge bush to the right in the center of the photo.

Oh and it is probably too late to move it until after it has bloomed this year.

You can move azaleas most anytime they are not stressed. They are still dormant now which make them even easier to move. They are hardest to move when in active growth in hot weather. We have had a very dry winter so it may be a problem.
