Re: [SG] Azaleas & Rhododendrons

Hi Bobbie,
        Too late to feed them in your area this year. you would be encouraging new
growth full of water going into our freeze and thaw cycles. Bad...very bad.
Rhodies and Azaleas last feeding date around here is July. Once in February
as buds are getting ready to plump up for the bloom season and again as
they are finishing up is the schedule.
