Can any one tell me what to do with an Azales that was flowering at Christmas

flooded. If you're bringing it back in for the winter, fertilise it fortnightly in the autumn with a high phosphorous, low nitrogen fertiliser to encourage flowering. Re-pot regularly with ericaceous compost. Good luck, I hope it keeps rewarding your care by Gil

CUTTING BACK CLIMBERS

re-attach them. Where you have to prune, make clean cuts just above leaf nodes to encourage new growth and reduce die back. Give everything a feed of tomato food which is low in nitrogen but high in potassium which will encourage new flowers by lindapalmara

Passion Flower

Potassium based feed, a feed with too much Nitrogen will produce lots of leaves but will not encourage flowering. Hope this helps, the flowers are so beautiful. by Claire8

Fertilising plum trees

the same as potato fertilizer (which is usually much cheaper!) In general you should look for ones with high K (Potash) with N (Nitrogen) and P (Phosphorous) being lower and about the same as each other, in the NPK ratio on the box. Something with N-P-K of by sam1987

Moss overtaking sedum roof...help!

that the feed may not be the right balance ie too much nitrogen etc. What do you think? http://www.djturfcare.co.uk/products/MO-Bacter-Organic-Lawn-Fertiliser.htm Another result of the excessive rain. As long as you've got it well drained it will probably by louise pope
