rhododendron emergency
Just came back from a week's holiday to find one of the overflow pipes
(central heating or hot water tank, I don't know which) dripping into a potted rhododendron. I suspect the water's got a lot of lime in it because there's white stains all over an adjacent window, and the rhododendron's looking very sick now -- all dried out, with all the leaves either curling outwards or yellow. I've put some coffee grounds around it and watered it with a solution containing a couple of teaspoons of vinegar, to try to get the acidity back up. Any other ideas? The plant must be at least 10 years old (I acquired it from a relative) and is about 5 feet tall. -- _____ . . | Carl Warnell ' o/ FORE! . . | | . . . . | /| . . ...o |
