Answer :

after the sun goes down mix 1 teasp liquid hand soap w 1 qt water spray on and under the leaves use a flat stick to move the branches carefully....spray again the next day and after a rain........spray again.........in the fall use dormant oil....mix according to directions..............do this again in the spring............wear old long clothes, mask and goggles with hand & gloves.  Keep children & pets away.  This is why I suggest doing when the sun goes down...that way it has time to dry....it does not take long......spray under it drips.....get under those leaves and heart of the plant.  check any other plants close to this one to see if they are having a problem

i did not know i need peet moss for an encore azalea so what do i do now?

Description : i did not know i need peet moss for an encore azalea so what do i do now?

Last Answer : Azaleas like acidic soil. Peat moss provides that. Don't worry about the peat moss now-azaleas don't like their very fragile roots disturbed. Use a fertilizer for azaleas and rhodedendroms-it's acid ... do the trick. Just follow the directions on the box of fertilizer. Don't over feed it.
