Lee Anderson comments, “Camellias, Azaleas, Rhododendrons, Gardenias – ‘Acid-Loving Plants’ – add color and structure to any landscape. All thrive in acidic soil that is not always present in this region. My presentation will demonstrate how and where to plant these luscious shrubs for best advantage, as well as techniques for long-term maintenance and what is needed to keep them producing the best blooms possible. While these plants have many similarities, each one is different, so we will also look at how they fit in our landscaping whether as foundation planting or a spectacular hedge display. My goal is to encourage people to share their own experiences so we can all end up with a better understanding resulting in healthier plants.”
