Hi,
I planted a rhododendron (dwarf rhododendron "baden-baden") in the
alkaline limey soil in my garden, before realising that these plants
hate lime. It was planted about 6 weeks ago and so far it is doing
fine. It had two flowers when I planted it, which have now fallen,
and although it has had no new flowers, it has loads of new shoots
growing. My question is - is it possible that the plant will do okay
here, or is it just a matter of time until the roots find the
surrounding alkaline soil and it starts to die off? should i move it,
or wait and see what happens. And what is the first sign of bad
health in this case... yellowing leaves? Any help appreciated,
Thanks
