🌼What to do with Azalea and Rhododendron in the Fall🌼

Hey Gardeners Ken Lain, the Top 10 Gardener here. Fall is upon us, and it's time to give your garden a feast before the winter slumber. Think of it like this: your plants have worked hard all summer, producing beautiful blooms and foliage. Now, they need to replenish their energy stores for next spring's show. That's where fertilizer comes in. Before Halloween, give everything in your garden a good dose of 7-4-4 All-Purpose Plant Food. This slow-release, organic blend is perfect for our mountain gardens. Sprinkle it around the base of your plants, and let nature do the rest. This is especially important for spring-blooming beauties like azaleas, rhododendrons, and lilacs. Those vibrant flowers require a lot of energy, and fertilizing now will ensure a spectacular show next spring. 🌸 And hold off on the pruning shears! Let your plants enjoy their fall colors and store energy for the winter. We'll tackle pruning later in the season. ✂️ So grab your fertilizer and give your garden the nourishment it deserves. Your future self will thank you! 😊 Get in the know!
