Ericaceous plants

Rhododendrons, camellias and azaleas are all acid loving plants or ericaceous plants. They will be setting their flower buds now to bloom next year, so it’s important that they never go short of water at this time of year or the flower buds may fail next spring. Feeding will also produce more and better flowers. Mulching with bark or similar products will help maintain soil moisture levels and insulate the roots from damaging high temperatures.

 

Camellias
