Don't Forget To Add These for Your Plants:

Pink Rosebay Rhododendron is a large native evergreen shrub with a loosely upright spreading habit and leathery dark green foliage.  Large clusters of soft lavender pink flowers bloom from late spring into summer and slowly fade toward white.  A very versatile plant that prefers morning or partial sun with acidic rich, well-drained soils.  Azaleas are excellent pollination and butterfly attractors.  Tolerates near full shade.  Note: Highly toxic if any part is ingested.

MAINTENANCE NEEDS:  A low maintenance plant.  Moderate water needs, properly drained soils is a must to avoid root rot.  Mulch helps to keep roots from drying out. Keep away from drip lines of the walnut family. Acidify soils as needed (PH range of 5 to 6.5) Can use sulfur or iron sulfate to lower ph, and lime or limestone to raise PH. Buds grow on old growth in winter, so if need to prune do so after the spring bloom.  Southern climates with excessive humidity are more prone to powdery mildew, twig blights, and rust.
