PLANTING<br />
Semi-shaded conditions are ideal, but some<br />
varieties will also survive in full sun. The important<br />
thing is not to let their roots get too hot; therefore,<br />
a layer of mulch is desirable. They like slightly<br />
acidic, moist, free draining soil; if you have heavy<br />
clay incorporate plenty of compost, peat, and<br />
gypsum at planting time to aid drainage.<br />
FERTILISER<br />
They are acid-loving plants and do not liked to be overfed.<br />
Use any good acid fertiliser when planting, adding<br />
sheep pellets to also give them a boost. Yellowing<br />
leaves is often due to a magnesium deficiency; in this<br />
case, you should apply Burnet's Sequestron Yellow Leaf<br />
Plant Tonic. If you are not sure, bring us a few leaves<br />
and we can diagnose what issue you may have.<br />
