Ideal for:

  • Lime Sensitive Plants

  • Rhododendrons & Heathers

Instructions

 

Potting On

Partly fill the new, larger pot with Ericaceous Compost.  Remove the plant from the old pot.  Place the plant in the new pot, make sure the plant is at the same level as it was in the original pot and fill the pot with compost, firming lightly. Water thoroughly and leave for any excess water to drain.

Top Dressing Mature Plants

Remove as much of the old, loose compost as possible from the top of the pot, without damaging the plant.  Replace with Ericaceous Compost and firm down gently.

 Outdoor Planting in the Soil

Dig a hole a few inches deeper and wider than the roots of the plant. Position the plant in the hole and gently fill around the roots using a 50:50 Ericaceous Compost and soil.

Finally, firm the compost / soil mix around the plant and water thoroughly.
