Why are the leaves on my azaleas turning brown and the plants looking stressed?
Top There are no blooming plants that are more beautiful than a sweep of azaleas, where they can be grown. Parker County does not happen to be one of those places unless you are prepared to do extraordinary bed preparation and continue with special care for their life expectancy. This is an instance when you will have fewer headaches by choosing plants that are native or adapted to our area. If you choose to plant azaleas, you may want to plant them in pots where the soil can be monitored (should be planted in equal amounts of brown sphagnum peat moss and shredded bark mulch). Give them morning sun and afternoon shade; water them regularly because the porous mix will dry out rapidly. Be prepared to water more often than you would if the plants were set directly in the soil. Azaleas can range from 2 to 6 feet so think about choosing plants that have a similar look for your landscape. The following are plants you may want to consider for your landscape. Some can be used in place of azale
