Being a novice I bought two young potted shrubs "Pieris"

( Flaming Silver
and Forest Flame ) But I have Alkeline soil and they like

Acid,
would it be a disaster to plant them in my garden or would

it be best to
plant them in tubs with the right soil conditions or can I

bury the tubs in
the spot I choose.
I know I could return the plants but I do like them.


Since they are reasonably slow growing, you could plant them
in pots, using ericaceous compost.
