Out of interest - what type of mulch do you intend to use?

was planning to use well rotted manure to improve soil as much as
possible, but i think i remember reading that it can burn the roots of
azealas. maybe thats just when mixed right into planting hole, and not
as mulch. any advice greatly appreciated

well rotted manure is fine anytime of year
Fresh manure will burn plants outside of winter months
although best restricted to rose beds and fruit trees/bushes
