Hello,

I'm new to this.. Iv'e inherited a garden with these bushes, but they never
flower! 6 years now, and maybe these were planted 7 years ago. No hint of
a flower on any of them. Is this normal? If now, what can I do? They've
never been fed or fertilized - nothing except cut back.
Can anyone point me in the right direction before I pull them up?!!!!

Tks

It may be the soil.Rhododendrons are lime haters and require ericaceous
soil. Try adding some sequestered iron,and do not trim the
bushes.


If that was the problem, you would see it in the yellowed leaves.
