[IBC] Azaleas and Acid Soil
Hello IBC'ers,
I've grown azaleas in New York without any problems, but after moving to Maryland, a mid-Atlantic state, I find that some of the leaves on the azaleas are turning yellow and dying. I read that this could be due to the soil in this area which is not acidic. (The trees are healthy and have flowered.) Since I cannot use rain water which is slightly acidic, does anyone have a suggestion as to how I can increase the acidity of the soil by amending it, perhaps with a commercial product? With thanks, Carol Schroeder Maryland, zone 7 ************************************************** ****************************** ++++Sponsored, in part, by Kevin Bailey++++ ************************************************** ****************************** -- The IBC HOME PAGE & FAQ: http://www.internetbonsaiclub.org/ -- +++++ Questions?
