My rhododendrons are wilting
I have (had) three Lee's Dark Purple Rhododendrons that I am very fond
of. I have really tried to nurture them and had high hopes for their success. They were planted in Dec. '99 and seemed to be doing quite well, even making it through last summer's drought (with frequent watering). But I have lost one and I believe that I may be losing another. They are wilting in sections. It can be new growth or old, but the leaves of an entire branch will start to wilt, then another branch will go. They are in a natural area among Pine trees. Some Azeleas nearby are doing great! They have no obvious signs of disease. They were planted pretty shallow with peat moss and mini pine nuggets as soil amendments. It is odd that they would grow for four years, then succumb during a relatively mild and wet summer ... Thanks for listening! -- Mark Raleigh, NC USA |
