Keep away from drip lines of the walnut family. Acidify soils as needed (PH range of 5 to 6.5) Can use sulfur or iron sulfate to lower ph, and lime or limestone to raise PH. Southern climates with excessive humidity are more prone to powdery mildew, twig blights, and rust. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLANDSCAPE USES: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Accents or Group Plantings, \u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cspan href=\"\/collections\/border\" title=\"Borders\" style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eBorders\u003c\/span\u003e, \u003cspan href=\"\/collections\/shade-garden\" title=\"Woodland Gardens\" style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eWoodland Gardens\u003c\/span\u003e, \u003cspan href=\"\/collections\/wildlife-garden\" title=\"Wildlife Gardens\" style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eWildlife Gardens\u003c\/span\u003e, \u003cspan href=\"\/collections\/sustainable-garden\" title=\"Naturalized Areas\" style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eNaturalized Areas\u003c\/span\u003e,\u003c\/span\u003e Foundational Plantings, Hedges, and Containers.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCOMPANION PLANTS:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan href=\"\/products\/hydrangea-mac-doublicious?_pos=25\u0026amp;_sid=b3b5ac79f\u0026amp;_ss=r\"\u003eHydrangea\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan href=\"\/products\/hosta-s-great-expectations?_pos=21\u0026amp;_sid=cf007c5e5\u0026amp;_ss=r\"\u003eHosta\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan href=\"\/products\/camellia-dr-tinsley?_pos=35\u0026amp;_sid=9cb1ff0b9\u0026amp;_ss=r\"\u003eCamellia\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e*As plants have ranges in appearance they may not appear as the images shown.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Prides Corner","offers":[{"title":"3 GALLON","offer_id":46662058475697,"sku":"1006067","price":95.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0683\/2069\/0353\/files\/sEoZ2agJDjL9a6KBVzdpOBCcoDc-SE4f6UdtctQa8Xw.jpg?v=1771526415","url":"https:\/\/schmitts-family-farm.myshopify.com\/products\/copy-of-azalea-encore-copy-carnation-tm","provider":"Schmitts Family Farm","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
